What a fantastic result! The entire setup is looking quite good! Good work~

Ah gotcha, they look good. Will check them out. Thanks, Jeff!

Your attention to details is top notch in this build. I really like the texture on the engine wiring hoses. Do you mind informing where you sourced them?

Very nice work so far on this interesting subject!

Brian, Great process and I can already see the truck taking its shape to be massively beautiful at the end. Good work~

Build this over the weekend as a "quick, easy, out of box, no frills, see how it goes" type of build. This was an easy kit for me and went quite well. It was also my first trailer build and I did not try to do any fancy stuff. Built it out of box except I ended up adding some brake hoses and marker lights receive lens covers (clear resin). The only major problem I faced was the ride height where I had to raise the height of the rear trailer wheels so that this trailer sits parallel when attached to a truck. I double checked instructions to see if I miss anything obvious, but couldn't figure out why I was having the ride height issue (I tried multiple trucks to confirm that the trailer was sitting too low). Things I liked: Easy build and the overall fit is decent Made no effort to correct or improve, but the final kit still turned out to be nice. When attached, turns your truck into something "more" meaningful. It is big! Things I didn't like: The ride height had to be corrected. Painting was somewhat of an issue as my spray booth was too small for the trailer. Decals were very thick and all of my decal softener solutions wouldn't work. Need bigger space to display Next time, I might try to get a different set of fleet decals to make things more interesting.

Looking good with hood operation! Nice work ~

Brian, You don’t need those PE parts, I know you could have scratch built better ones yourself for sure. 😉 See how people start demanding more?? Haha. Nonetheless, just awesome details you are putting into this plow. Somehow I am hoping you keep track of how many hours you spent building this vehicle. It would be an interesting information when you finish the build; it should give us some idea on the effort and time required to produce this type of quality work~

Perfect! I mean everything is perfect!! You have done an incredible work finishing this model, I really enjoyed looking at these photos.

Great model and nice photography work! I really like how it turned out!

Fabulous work, I like the details on the bash and the engine bay. Great execution making the car look simply gorgeous!

You have produced a fantastic model, everything faithfully reproduced with quality. The car is pleasure to look at. Bravo!

Splendid result! Beautifully done and amazing finish work, the body shine is just top notch! Good job!

What a nice finish and incredible work adding the body kit. It is a real beauty. I like the color choices with orange accents also. With all the custom work, the car is turning into something very special and unique. Great work~ 👍

Fantastic restoration, always amazing to see how they come back to their glorious days! Nice job!

Awesome work, I appreciate your description on paint choices also! The finished work is just top notch regardless the issues you mentioned. And lastly, great photography!

This is a great accomplishment, I enjoyed the build process and also I really like the use of bright body color and matching wheel. Very stylish too. Good job, Jürgen!

What a beautiful tanker this is. It definitely had all the vintage look and feel as well. A great work overall, the entire build is clean and proper!

Thanks for sharing the story and the truck built. Very high quality work and accurate representation of the real thing. I really like the painting scheme with green and white. Nice!!

I am speechless… Not only the build itself is awesome, but the hinge assembly is top notch, the fit is as good as it can get.

I like the subtle weathering work throughout the build. Good work!

The quality of the 3D printed parts are looking excellent! I am certain this is going to be super special as you make further progress to build the truck! 👍

The truck has a good stance and the color choice is also nice here. Great progress so far. I think Alclad is spray only so you wont get a good result without an air brush system. The decals looked like they attached properly too! As people mentioned if softner is used, it is important to not touch when the fluid is doing its magic. You may be able to press (only press) using a clean cotton swap to help conform the surface while the decals are wet from the solution though.

Great detail work and modification effort here. Keep up the good work!

Small details never lost here. Amazingly cool to see how you are constructing components out of nothing. Bravo!
