Mr. Can Am Garage Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 These are some of the options I am looking at for my kit when I actually get a hold of one of these kits! Considered a D/R truck myself and I've got a friend who use to drive Express for SGT from their HQ to Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Can Am Garage Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 The last time I showed you any exterior progress, I'd shot the first of three colours on the truck. Colour #2 Colour #3. The full monte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Can Am Garage Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 Newbie here and i just gotta say that paint sure looks "CANADIAN NATIONAL" That's the idea. If you're an owner/operator who wants to haul trailer for CN Rail, this is the scheme you must paint your truck. I've seen quite a few but no LoneStars yet.

BigBad Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Ahhhh MAN! This is lookin' real good! I was thinking of doing the CN paint scheme on an Italeri Western Star. Now I know I'll do it! Wow this looks real good on your Loner. Keep it up and keep us posted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Can Am Garage Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 I'm glad you guys are enjoying this build as much as I am. On to the partially completed interior. While the flocking didn't come in the box, the laminate flooring decal sure did and it's beautiful! The kit comes with three decals for the I.P. but I think I can do the switches and etc. at least as well so I'm not going to use the third. The kit provides decals for all the wood trim including that little panel in front of the driver's side window. There's only so many hours in a day if you're wondering why the rest of the wood decals aren't on yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackinac359 Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Comparing John's build (and the kit I just got in today) to the test-shot I built in December - there are small but noticeable differences. The interior has more texture - carpet on the floor for example is on the plastic (not as bold as the flocking) but wasn't on the test shot. The exhaust shields have engraved vent/mesh, the test shot didn't. This really is a nice kit. John, yours is looking sweet! Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
