LEADER aussie truck

[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
