    I’m thinking about running the two lines from the trailer to the truck. What color, or colors, should they be? Where would I hook them up to the truck tractor itself? Thank You In Advence.

    Still truckin along, at the Soren of a T800. I don’t have the trailer under carriage glued to the axle assembled. Cool thing is, it’s a bit shorter than what I thought it would be. Now onto working more on the interior.

    I have the tanker soaking in water with dishwasher bleach packets and some purple power. Is there anything else I could use to strip off the chrome, from the parts I’m wanting to strip?

    I did some custom black wash detailing to the grilles, grille surround, cab side trim pieces, and front bumper. Man I’m having a blast on building this truck.

    Got a few more parts painted and the wheels and tires completed.
  8. Saltie Olds
    Thank You. Yes, I could use some shelves. When I can, I’ll be putting up some custom made shelves for my semi trucks. I’ll be placing that onto the window sill of my bedroom.

    Here’s what I’ve gotten done on the trailer so far. The trailer wheels are going to look very similar to the trucks wheels. The trailer gave me the idea on how I wanted all the wheels to look.

    Here’s the completed chassis and drive train. Now time to turn my efforts over to the trailer.

    Here’s a few more pictures of my build.
  14. Saltie Olds
    Thank You.
  15. Saltie Olds
    Awesome. Then I’ll start working on this one next.

    This truck is a rough idea on what I’m looking for in this project. The tire size is perfect. 29.5-25
  17. Saltie Olds
    I’ve been thinking about what that truck would be like as a W900.
  18. Saltie Olds
    Here’s what my next semi truck project is going to be. I’m going to be adding some parts from the Alaskan Hauler to the W925 and have the trailer up on the truck. Still trying to figure out a good mid tire to put on it. Yes, I’m keeping the sleeper on the truck.
  19. Saltie Olds
    I was able to get part of the chassis and drive train done today as well.
  20. Saltie Olds
    I was able to get some spray painting done today. Yes, I know the engine is a Detroit diesel, but I wanted to paint it Cat Yellow. It’s coming along nicely.
  21. Saltie Olds
    Thank You. I’m having a blast with this one.
  22. Saltie Olds
    That’s Awesome. Big difference between a 31x10.50 and a 35x12.50.
  23. Saltie Olds
    Thank You. I’m really enjoying this one.
  24. Saltie Olds
    I’ve made some progress on painting my truck. Once I have a complete rolling chassis, I’m going to get the undercarriage of the trailer started.
  25. Saltie Olds
    Yep. It was a 1/6 scale truck. I’m loving how well mines going together.
