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

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

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.

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

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
