Rigzndiesel Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Slowly plugging away at this project. As pics show, it's the Coors KW and I'm using a Great Dane for the trailer. Decals were shot on both models so I got online and got some from Ebay. 2-hole budds for trailer from Class A resin. Moebius tires on tractor and home-made budds for drive wheels. Used an 8 air bag suspension from another kit. Using extra stacks and air cleaner cap from Revell KW. I think the stacks are too tall for a company rig, I may change them. Other than that just going box stock. I remember this combo as a kid when I used to visit my Dad when he lived in Colorado (I'm from Illinois). Nowhere to be seen anywhere now that I am an adult living in this state. One of my early influences on why I love trucks and COEs. Oh ya, I stretched the frame about an inch to make a west coast rig.

Old Albion Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Excellent! To try a paint scheme like that is certainly not for the feint hearted, very nicely done. I really like it.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Nice work on the paint. K100s are one of my favorites!
Rigzndiesel Posted September 24, 2015 Author Posted September 24, 2015 Thanks for the comments guys! I had to paint the white stripe on the cab due to the decals going bad. I was very worried that I wouldn't be able to get to make this Coors combo. Thankfully another modeler told me a guy was offering them online. I was pretty happy with the paint on this one. I'll make an update here shortly!Jeff
