jacobus

Thank,s Gator have make some changes , extend the chassis for 4 fueltank,s [ 2 both side,s now i think what wheels i put on , normal ore spokes paint already the chassis and the picture,s wil follow [ if the camera wil work he have some faults now ] and also a big clean up in my room . so much to sort out of the part,s [ like fueltank,s - wheel,s and tyre,s - suspensions , - engine,s and a big pile of transkits , i didnt know that i have such big pile of it - if i see more than 50 you think that i am crazy ] and a lot of kit,s from AMT - ITALERI , REVELL ETC ETC about 350 boxes so ppfff now a put the european on one side and usa on the other but thats a terrible job but i love it to see what i have also a bunch of trailers and car,s and the worst must stil come , about more than 1000 diecast model,s from scale 1:43 and 1:50 and 1:87 to sort out jacobus

thats correct i orderd some parts and normal wait about 2 weeks now after 8 weeks its arrived now everybody blame the covid but i think thats not alway,s correct the put everywhere a brake on and sometime,s its not needed jacobus

so , i am a little bit shame , forget to put and take some pictures of the progress have also wait longer for some parts do the virus [ corrona ] everything is slow , the shop,s , mail etc etc yesterday finnaly came some stuff at home so today can i go on other build must now clear the table so the aussie can build further jacobus

hello , i think there is a curse on this built , everytime i fix some things something else get broken put the wheels on axle broken [ BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH material revell !!! ] so first dril al out and make metal axle,s before the other,s get broken hood looks not good on hight , don,t know how that,s possible but the front wheel looks in my eyes not correct , so change the hinges and so struggle on on this built 1 step forward and 2 back , now i hope that it wil go a little better til the next update whit the picture,s of a hopeful normal model ore W.I.P. jacobus

a lot thing to think about this one square fueltank,s ore round ?? and 2 on each side . bullbar yes ore no highrise sleeper ore a normal one color , i thinkin a kind of red but have seen now so many color,s that i am confussed engine cat ore cummins and so i try to make it a nice and shine one jacobus

great ! a lot of work to save it but it looks very good the interior is perfect also the engine and chassis and who let the dog inn [ he hates kenworth,s ??? ] wel we see how its go and wat kind of color he gets jacobus

yesterday came finnaly some parts that i orderd some time ago , due the corona virus have it take some longer time to delivering now i can move on with the build , wel the hobbytable are full with some other build,s , now put it aside and go on with this aussie kenworth so much nice builds here that i can stay behind LOL jacobus

wel also go on with the feightliner , first have take a look witch color a use for the bumper , and its the orange-yellow take some shots to look how its like here with the exhaust , curved and now work slowly to finishd this one jacobus

wel , its go wrong cab and roof sleeper paint white and that was rubbish , so now its in the oven cleaner , i think it was to cold ore my one fauld to put no gloves on when i tough it frame is now painted in primer and must take some picture,s of it to show engine is a ??? witch one i wil use , the cat ore put the cummins onder the hood also wait for some parts that i order , hope its come quick its very strange weeks to stay inside and the mail put it on the front of your door and rings and step a away for 3 meters [ i can understand that ] says yep and byby jacobus

yes , the are out of bussines the have make a lot of good things [ i have a roof and backpanels for the peterbilt from it , great detail,s and good fit ] jacobus

so change the frame and make it the right lengt for the wheelbase also looks of a put the cat in it ore change it for a cummins [ from the kenworth T 600 from revell ] this box so a dryfit from the total for the looks and the size of the fueltank,s and on one side with a airtank now also hope,s that it wil stop raining so than i can paint jacobus

hello , first thing i have do is make the airbags and brake,s closed , revell have them open so i use a putty and when its good dry sand them in shape also put some primer on some parts and sand it smooth for the sleeper i make this already and paint it , than i make it compleet and tape it in for the rest of the sleeper otherwise i wil have a problem with the windows and now i can glue it and tape the top for the rest to paint i thing thats the best way to do it til the next time jacobus

For everybody the best wishes and healty 2020 first lookin the instructions to make changes on the chassis remove some things and take the messurements for the brackets and the batteryboxes and take a look how its like and clean everything up i also wil use a metal front axle becouse that from revell is very fragile til the next time jacobus

Here is my project revell kenworth with auslowe hood and cab and sleeper mayby a grill from double take replica,s that i have it was long ago that i cant wait to start with a build , its give me energy to do this a wait til 1 januari to go with this one , have already fun with lookin for a paintcombo picture,s don,t know if i use square fueltank,s ore the round one,s and for everybody i wish you a healty 2020 and a lot of building jacobus
