have make som plumbing on the cat and his gearbox on the engine when everything is good than the primer and paint jacobus

hello , i have make the fenders with woodglue to the cab so i can figured out where the battery box etc can come on the chassis and i can make the support for it , also for the aircleaner , so now its must a little move back but now i know the sizes i have ordered a V6 engine for this old lady but if its take to long a take the V8-71 jacobus

hello jim , you want something like this front , you know where i have it from now i use a italeri 49 ft trailer because the sidewalls are good for the old look , so cut and lower it to a 30 ore 32 ft trailer , i think thats the correct size of that time ?? still a lot of cuttin and saw and try to make it looks good for a old style trailer jacobus

beside the other projects i am also workin on a leader , a australian truck from long time ago , there is not much to find but i have a brochure and that helps for the info , like the engine , suspension so here a couple of picture,s of this old lady the donor is the italeri australian truck but remove the airsuspension and replace a rockwell 6 rod under the chassis , also a cat 3408 cut a piece of the radiator and replace the top that is for the right high so the hood wil fit the cat fits nice in the chassis and now can the gearbox mount to the engine and also the suspension also make the back of the chears close , it looks better and nice and clean now just put everything in the primer til the next time

this its in the box have put him deep under the stash otherwise i wil start with this one jacobus
