  1. Tamiya has a couple of pink spray bombs, one light and one dark, might get you close.
  2. Calling it done. If you guys should build this trailer, be warned that the decals are kind of thick and don’t really respond well to decal softener ( at least they didn’t for me ), and I couldn’t get them to conform very well. It does look good on the shelf though. Thanks for following along on this one.
  3. Getting closer, got one side pretty much done….
  4. So, the white bits are done, finally, tomorrow will be mask and spray the aluminum, then some green stripes of some sort. I ended up gluing all the doors closed due to some warping of the parts, which honestly was rather disappointing for a ‘new reissue’, would have thought parts would not be warped, but it is what it is, stay tuned for more updates…..
  5. Thanks guys, Ive got the trailer 1/2 in paint, well, a third of it I guess lol. We are supposed to get dumped on with snow late Friday, so I’ll be at the bench all weekend ….
  6. She’s looking great!
  7. Thanks guys, appreciate the comments and inspiration. The truck is done, so now it’s trailer focus until that’s done.
  8. Started work on the trailer …
  9. No, I got those from double take replicas a few years ago, unfortunately KJ isn’t making parts anymore….
  10. Got some decals on it last night …
  11. Wow, that’s gonna be a sweet trailer, nice work ! I see the need for a new shelving unit coming soon…..
  12. Thanks guys, should have the truck wrapped up soon, then it’s trailer time. This is pretty much where I stopped last night…
  13. Thanks guys, a little more progress…
  14. Thanks guys. Got a few more bits done tonight , it’s up on its wheels finally, some interior stuff, some more frame/engine stuff, and the obligatory mock up pic, lol
  15. That looks fantastic, both the chassis and interior, great work!
  16. Thanks guys. Made a little more progress tonight, air bags painted, engine/radiator final assembled in frame, front axle glued in. Have interior parts painted and the grill mostly detailed ( needs minor touch up of the black band), but progressing nicely .
  17. That’s gonna be sharp!
  18. Thanks everyone, making more progress on this, and had to set the cab on to see how my colors were working.
  19. The red with white stripes looks terrific! It’s coming along nicely .
