Calling this one done.

Thanks for all the great comments. It’s ending completion. All I have left is to weather the box and put it on. Here is where it stands

All the hydraulic lines are aftermarket. And the cylinders are scratch built. For the weathering I use tamiya weathering powders.

Great work!! This might help for the cylinder. I used these on my current payhauler build. I found some telescoping alligator clips and cut them down to size. You can find them at most hardware stores with a clip, mirror or magnet on the end of them.

Trying to get this finished up

They are gas meters. I 3d printed the the stuff In the back.

This is a close replica of one of the retired service trucks from the company I work for

I am in the process of cleaning the parts on mine and have these 2 parts left over and I can’t find them anywhere in the instructions. Do you know where they go? Part 232 the ones on the right

Very nice. I just started one myself and will probably use these picks for reference of the hoses.

Ok. A little update. Got the interior done, painted the window trim and detailed the grille. I also printed a gas meter and pressure regulator. Just need to get the decals made and then I think I can finish it up.

I 3D printed them from a file I found on Thingiverse.

Me too

And couldn’t resist a painted mockup.

Shot some paint and clear on it.

Interior done. I printed a cooler to go in the back. I might make a few other bits to go with it.

Thanks. I have an anycubic photon s sla printer. It turns out some quality prints.

My decal sheet was missing too. I contacted them and they got back to me pretty quickly. They said they will send one to me the the next day.

If anyone is on Instagram follow @modellbau1zu24. He is building one right now and has good progress reports.

The bed is from the moebius service truck kit and everything in the bed is scratch built or 3D printed

Decided to use the new wheels. Got them painted and weathered a little.

I ordered mine on September 1st and it just arrived today. Very impressed but there was no decal sheet in the box. I sent them a message. Mistakes happen.

I decided to print different wheels to see how they look. Now I’m not sure the route I’m gonna go.

Thanks. Yes these are the kit wheels and tires.

This is the 3rd service truck build in my Northwestern Energy truck series. Have everything painted so far and 3D printed to odds and ends for the bed. I neither need to make decals or have someone make them for me. Anyone know of a person that is good at making decals? The only pics I have of the real truck are after the lettering was removed and the truck was sold.

Had this one on the pile for a while and decided to finally build it. I needed something I could finish quick to get out of a slump. It will be pretty much box stock. I couldn’t stand the look of the wheels so I dechromed them and 3D printed some beadlock rings to make them look 100% better. I am still looking for one more wheel and tire if anyone has one they would part with...I need a spare for the rear hatch. Here it is so far.
