Sam I Am Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) I have been sorting through my big rig stash for the first time since the move....about four years ago. I had forgotten this cab. I usually keep all pertinent info together but not this time. Other than being a Kenworth, I have no memory of what it is, but it has a really short hood. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) I believe it is an S900 Australian KW. Possibly made by Back Yard Shed. Edited March 15, 2019 by DRIPTROIT 71 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PettyKW43 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 The conversion kit you have I don’t know who made it, but it is an S-Series Kenworth. The truck was one of the first trucks exported to Australia but was sold in the US primarily on the eastern side of the country where the overall length was an issue. The truck wasn’t overly popular on this side of the pond. The SAR W900 was developed by Kenworth Australia as a replacement for the earlier S model.

CRUSADER2 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 There are some really nice restored example's in Australia but that resin cab and hood look like a lot of work to me, there doesn't look to be anything straight or square, or is it possibly the angle of the photo's, good luck with it if you decide to have a go, I will watch the build for sure as it is one of my favorite Kenworths and is one that I would like to model in the future.
