Hi Jim B, I used a Italeri No 3831 American Cargo Trailer used half the kit and then cut it to fit the Western Star As for the other half that is a "A-trailer" body Cheers Cossett

Hi all, On the subject of Western Stars, I built this Aussie Western Star Tipper straight from the box with a scratch built tipper body and sub frame. This was a good kit to build with so many variable's to make it. Cheers Cossett

Hi Jim B, I heard that Kit Form Services or Auslowe did a left hand dash for the Aussie Westernstar a while ago not to sure if they still make them but worth a try Cossett

Hi all, I was wondering how do you unglue a truck frame and body parts I used Humbro precision poly when building this truck ? Thanks Cossett

I know this has been asked over and over but I will ask again What is the best way of dechroming detailed chrome parts with out making them brittle ? and What is the best way of bending Evergreen (sheet styrene) flat sheet to make square fuel tanks for trucks ? Thanks Cossett

Very nice T600, it reminded me that I built the same truck many years ago Cossett

Just a question for everyone, Now that Caterpiller are pulling out of selling truck engines, but are still supplying after market parts to old engines are people going to put Cat engines in new after market conversion kits they buy and are the model company's going to put Cat's in the new kits they make ?

Have you tried Kit For Services from the UK http://www.kitformservices.com/photoetch.html Cossett

The Kenworth T900 is typical of the "big rigs" that cruise across the Australian Outback with 2 or 3 trailers in tow. The T900 is similar to its US equivalent the W900 but has special features that allow it to operate better in the harsh desert environment. These include special air filters, huge fuel tanks for extended range, heavy duty air-conditioning, and "bull bars" which protect the truck from collisions with wild animals. Trucks of this type are powered by Caterpiller, Cummins or Detroit diesel engines of 350 - 500 hp. Cossett

Hi all, I just got back into model truck building after 12 years and recently finished building a KW100 and T900. I've got plans to build a twin steer K100 after a few other projects and was wondering what the best way is to stretch the frame without fear of it breaking or twisting. Thanks Cossett
