Change of plans. The sleeper kicked my………; so I took it apart, stole the cabinets and bed. Found a sleeper in my spare parts, modified the size to be the same as the one from the T600 kit. Now to clean up the fit

Yup, interested in a pair of those steps for an upcoming build.

Nice work

Nice builds

Castings look sooooooo much better, this will be an outstanding build.

Nice work on your build Warren, I am watching ?

That is so cool, well done

Lookin good

Thanks guys, actually thought about building it into truck with a crane but I think the wrecker would be better. Got to finish my other project first before I start, few weeks.

Got my T800 conversion kit from Plaskit today in the mail and it’s a great fit. Had to do a quick mock-up. I will be using the stretched T600 KW I started a year ago but abandoned the project. I have a Peterbilt Can-Do Wrecker kit (new in the box) and a second steering axle coming in the mail. Picture for inspiration and maybe color choice. Fits the theme of trucks I have been building. I really don’t need another project, but I can’t help it

Making progress on paint.

Nicely done

Really nice detail

Getting the body color on, TS-45 pearl white for the cab, hood and sleeper and TS-41 turquoise for bumper, fenders, aero skirts and rear fenders. This color scheme will match my GMC General build.

Liking the idea, fun build to watch.

Omg, my dream workshop, I’m jealous

Wow, gonna test your skills or patience

So after reading this post I had to go up and just stand back and look at my work space. Yup, it’s a mess, my work space is the worst and my project storage needs attention as well. I get so use to working in my space , I just don’t see the mess.

Outstanding build

Pretty cool build

Great color combo

What club did you join? I heard there is one in TC.

Looking good

I had the same issues with this kit, tanks warped as well and the air bags where not the same length. I posted the in my WIP GMC General thread last year.

Looks good, I have a couple projects in the same state of finish or not finished.
