    Yeah, I'll have to snag a few when they do.

    Jeremiah, it *can* go to the airport, but not a limo. This is much more pedestrian. And no, it doesn't have a tailgate, just a Screamin' Jimmy diesel.

    I'm thinking just a generic yellow and pea green color.

    Since I need to find the proper pea green color for the bus, I've turned my attention to those two Cadillac limo wagons. See if you can guess what I am building:

    It's not too hard to figure that one out.

    And from the leftovers, I might just make a "shortroof" caddy wagon, or even a funereal flower car.

    So, while body putty dries on the airporter, I grabbed the Phillips 66 gasoline tanker, and the Gulf gas station wrecker, both made by the same company, and swapped cabs. This way, I have a 3-ton Chebby tractor in Gulf colors (I'll need to remove the gumball machine and cover/paint the roof) to pull the tank trailer once its repainted, and still have a wrecker I'll redecorate for an auto shop wrecker with a paint job like the truck was cobbled together.

    The bumper and wheels on the tractor will need Gulf Oil orange...it looks to be pretty close to Grat Northern "Omaha Orange" from their Empire Builder passenger train.
