steve1970 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Hi all, This completed KW represents Will Chandler's 1970 K-123 from the "In Tandem" pilot. Not a whole lot of references/resources available since it only had a brief cameo in the beginning of the movie. The build includes 5 hole budds, modified fuel tanks (no steps / centered fill fuel cap), single exhaust, ugly roof A/C and "California Lines" decals from the Movin' On decal set. Steve 1
Kenny900 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Another good looking Kenworth! Nice work mate!
GearUpJammer Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Great job Steve,really captures the essence of 70's trucking!
Old Buckaroo Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Wow, this is spectacular build up. I like your style and choice of modeling subjects.I agree with you on how hard it is to find pictures of this truck, it is a photo phantom for sure.
Tesla Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Great replica of the real truck! Fantastic build. You've got some great modeling skills
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Excellent subject choice!!! My kind of build!! Excellent Work!!

purepmd Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Excellent build. What a faithful reproduction.Superb build! Gotta love those old school cabovers! Lord knows I DO!Gotta love Cabovers, old school, new school, no school, even reform school. Crazy about Cabovers. What was it I read in another post, "if it has a hood, it is no good".
Russell C Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Shared this thread over at the official Facebook page for the Movin' On / In Tandem TV producers, and the reply to it was"Please let them know what we're doing over here. Perhaps our pictures can help the modelers."

Brinx Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Bet Will wished the truck he was driving was a nice (and well-cared for) as the example you built. Very nicely done Steve!!

And thank you Russell for posting it on the "Movin' On" Facebook page. Awesome. SteveFigured the guys at the official Movin' On Facebook page would appreciate that.
