My first big rig build
gotnitro? replied to raisin27's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Mike - your first rig ? Wow looks like you've done this before, excellent work so far . Welcome to the rig builders forum ! Everyone here is very helpful As far as removing the chrome look..which fits your weathered worn work truck theme, several options exist . Painting the tanks black, or body color would look good. Another option would be a dullcoat to knock the shine down. Looking forward to your build -

If that doesn't work, I've used DOT 3 brake fluid before to strip paint . Over night soak then wash w dish detergent. Worth a shot -

Seems funny now that I'm working on a plow, and our weather is unseasonably warm. Forecast of mid 50s all week..not complaining..been taking the Mach 1 for trips in Dec seems like ealry Christmas -

Mack DM 600 steel hood dump truck
gotnitro? replied to Mopar - D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Now there's a mockup ! That dump box looks great on the steel hood mack. Did you modify the camelback span on this build ? Heard they have an excessive span out of the box . Yours doesn't look that wide . -

Thanks Brian ! Huge milestone reached this weekend, the paint started flying !!! Stopped by my local lfs , and found exactly the colors I was hoping for, tamiya chrome yellow and racing green ! The chassis is in final color, the cabs gonna be a few days . You can see my cab lurking , I used silver base to seal the previous red paint from bleeding thru..THANKS Sam !!!! I added a filler panel under the cab before paint . Here's a mockup w everything before the final primer coat and yellow goes down. Getting to this point seemed ridiculous fast, but really enjoying building this plow. The blue cab and hood really let me down, something caused bulges in the doors, and 3 spots dead center in the hood. I think these new parts came from Kelly Ingram, so glad I had them -

You've really taken this build to another level! Those large floats look good on there. Swapping hoods really changes the appearance of the DM , much more of a working truck imo -

Wow Dan , I hadn't noticed the pass side wiper before..but now you've mentioned it..I'll see what the rodents say . I did spot the headlight holes in the bumper ends, have those planned. Another smallish detail I wanted to include is the diamond plate panel over fenders, the photo shows it extending down side ! That truck didn't have the cab guard or cold temp shutters..but plenty of easter eggs to ponder Jeff -
I'm guessing it was hydro dipped , cool idea . Creates a modern wrapped kinda vibe
