im not to good at scratch buiding yet...but this is what ive created so far... i still have things to paint and add any suggestions are welcome...things to make it look better is always good

not much of a update...but heres the inside...and the other sleepers i have on it for fun

im putting a 8v92 detroit in it, or a 3408 cat, havent decided...im also not using the wheels

i cut the sleeper off comeletey..left a triangle cutout on top of the cab and a flat surface on the back.. after making some filler panels, using some body putty lots of sanding i got the problems solve...was quite a job to be honest ill have some update pics in the morning...im headed to miami and gonna be in the truck for a while so i wont be here to work on it

that would look good behind my kw

thanks guys...im a huge kw fan...i seen a w9L in this color on the road and loved it so much i wanted my own...since i cant afford 100k ill build it...

when i was a kid i remember dream bars..orange flavored outside with vanilla ice cream inside...soooo good.. heres my kw project HUGE thanks to thatswhatshesaid for sending me this sleeper

anyone have good tips to make one? or buy a chrome texas bumper and painted visor? need it for my 1/24 w9

small update: got the cab mounts set in place

keeping the cab the color it is...its a decent job

indeed...i got it last year just the cab insides and windows...i wanted to rebuild it sooooo bad...figured id be best to buy the kit vs each part..this t600 ticked me off so the coe gets a second shot in life... after its done i think i nice 48 foot reefer will suit it well heres a short update....got the rear wheels one it, along with my 8v71 detroit in mock up

i got fed up with this stupid t600...im not a fan of the trucks to begine with...after breaking numeruos parts...andit being in the way... this idea clicked.. thanks to rel14 i finally have use for this awesome old coe kw...all im missing is the grill and a headlight i think... so time to cut chop cuss and throw...and make a truck now to stretch it..make it normal or box...

pm me with more details also thanks for the replys...been on the road last few days and couldlnt reply

wasnt sure where to post...doing a stretched KW...i wanna put a 60 inch flat top on it...any advice on making one...or where i could buy one

build went a different way...here the newest update...hope to see it road ready this evening

MUCH THANKS to you and everyone else...

only downfall i have no printer...only one i have access to is just a plain color at the library... im unsure of you doll house stuff...can you explain a bit more

im going to make a diorama for my 1/24...basically a shop nothing special... is there anywhere i can print out scale boxes/posters/signs etc or if i could scale it myself id be happy with that too

winter is here in missouri...i moved to a new shop(apartment) and its time to finish this t600 from last year... made it into a daycab, the sleeper was so boogered up i threw it in the parts been.. this truck will have the trailer it sits on behind it

more kits thrown togeather...work is slow on this one

money problems came, sold off quite a bit of my model stuff... now i got a new better place, got my solid wood model desk back...and as you can see all my parts organized etc....and my chair is a seat out of a fld freighliner...new terms to model truckin

yep sure was....i like what your doing to it....heres a pic of when i had it... http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=66997&hl=

hey thats my old daycab lol

just an update, i got it all re-painted...heres just a short teaser.....this truck was on hold for almost 2 months cause another memeber never sent said parts....big thanks to swamp dog for sending me part in 2 days to get this truck on the road faster.. the body is just sitting on the frame...still finishing up the inside...more pics soon

well put,.. i took a risk, ive traded with 2 members and had super good trades... the one that screwed me was even a MCM Avid Poster... so yes its a risk... i traded some decals from modeltruckin and had them sent to his house....never again will i do something like that...i lost a lil over 15 bucks, vs under 10 trading parts...lesson learned do some research is my advice...i like to call individuals, check on some other posts...check the good traders list and so on
