Hello,
I finished this truck a few days ago to use on another project I'm working on. The cab, chassis and wheels/tires are from a Jordan 1923 Ford kit and the rest is scratch-built from strip styrene and a few castings...
Cheers,

wow Karl, so nice!
next time you build a Jordan, please share your tips! (like, what kind of glue do you use?)
That is crazy good.

Hi Bob,
I guess after building 300+ Jordan's over the years I think I've tried just about every solvent-type liquid cement out there.
I liked Ambroid and Tenax 7R the best but now that they both seem to have been discontinued I've gone to using straight up Methylene Chloride (same stuff as Ambroid)), Faller Super Expert and Tamiya Extra Thin Liquid Cement. I like The MethChlor best since it works the fastest and makes a very strong joint. Here's another one I finished a few weeks back. It's a Jordan Mack flatbed that I scratch-built into a garbage truck with styrene strips and sheets...

Another work of art. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Karl...
Great truck.
I have found Tennax to come and go. I recently found a display box of about a dozen and I snagged four. I want to say I was in or around Portland Oregon. No telling how long they had been on the shelf.
The shop owner made is sound like it was no big deal that he had them.
It may just be your area. Search wider areas.
see ya

Karl, wonderful work and gorgeous detail on those trucks.
