kilrathy10 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Nice work on this one, too....This KW is probably the better of the two, though....Kit wise, that is....The stripes look good.....And that headache rack is pretty good, as well....Great job, Mike....

Brinx Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 Thanks guys... I've wanted to do one for quite some time (I've had the truck-em up graphics poster hanging in my shop for years). Instead of decals, I used the Pactra trim tape for all the stripes, love that stuff! The headache rack was actually to hide were my stripes didn't quite line-up on the back of the sleeper (lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

378DRIVER Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) Excellent build!!! I built one and found those gold stripes are a B&*%$# to work with, It took a while but I got`er done!!! This one belongs to a friend of ours. Model we built for him. Edited December 30, 2013 by 378DRIVER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brinx Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thanks Bob. John, yours came out VERY nice...you're right about those gold stipes (best part, I ran out of the thin one before I was done and had to cut about 2' of a wider one...THAT was lots of fun ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Sweet looking W900s, guys. I hope to add one of these to my collection soon. I've heard that the interiors were blue vinyl; is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brinx Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 Check this site: morestuff4less.com/stories/2004/03/06/1976Kenworth,html or search 1976 Kenworth and it should pop up near the top of the list. The blogger posted about a dozen, very clear and detailed shots, several of them giving a good look at the interior. The post was so good, it provided me all the research I needed.

mistermodel Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Nice work.One of my favorite trucks and definitely a huge influence on truck history.I built one myself using modeltruckin decals. Jim,here is a couple interior pics.Some modellers licence has to be applied to kind of make the kit design work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
