Ok I know the colors may look goofy but when it's done I think it will look good. I know that one air tank is not placed "kit proper" but I'm trying to build what I would order...long, naked frame rails

[10thumbs]

Oh yeah!  Rich, next to another thing, nothing better than naked rails.  A real cool and clean, smooth look.  I like!

Well came up with a new issue, don't know why but when I was trying to clean up the flash on the tanks a big chunk off. I'm now trying to decide what to do, body color,bmf or Alclad.?

[Superpeterbilt]

The colors look good to me!

[cowboy rich]

I'm trying to figure out what I want to do here, kinda thinking....maybe red on each end, bmf in the middle and white straps? Any thoughts? Red where the screwdriver is maybe?

[Mopar - D]

I like the red, white and blue.

thanks guys I'm just trying to figure out how to do the tanks now and I'm leaning toward bmf in the middle and red on the ends. I was hoping to have this much more wrapped up by now but life keeps getting in the way 

[cowboy rich]

Gator I've thought about that but don't know if the amount of red might be to "heavy" so to speak.

Absolutely!

[cowboy rich]

Looks like the red is the popular choice, I'll give it a shot when I get home in the morning

Works been busy enough I can't seem to get anything done, hopefully next weekend I can just want my post for June up here....I ain't given up

Hi Rich, be happy your work keeps you from playing around.  You'll get to the hobby when you have the time, we'll be looking out.

[cowboy rich]

Anybody got any idea what the heck happened here? I didn't bother to decant the paint this time so everything was sprayed from the same can at the same time. The parts one the tree are nice and smooth the tanks are all orange peel everything preped the same. Only difference is the tanks got a green bath to remove the chrome then all was washed and rinsed.

[cowboy rich]

I guess a picture would you see what I'm talking about....I gotta start getting some decent sleep

[Mopar - D]

Rich I had the same problem with my air brush and ended up having to replace the nozzle and needle. 

[cowboy rich]

Well not much new mostly some paint but want my post in for July 

[Mopar - D]

Looking good Richard and looks like your about ready to do some assembly work now. 

[cowboy rich]

Thanks Dan 

 

I am about to start some assembly when I get back home, along with sand a dog hair out on the hood. Work has been busy so I haven't much time for this, but I'm still trying, who knows maybe 10 more will drop out and I'll have a chance!!! lol I wish I had it with me to work on right now this night shift bs is killing me, but my job change is happening shortly which should help.

 

 

[cowboy rich]

Well I finally have a rolling chassis and starting to get some shiny stuff on and engine mounted hopefully tomorrow I can get going on the cab and tanks again, tanks finally cleaned up. Just as I went to take the pictures the sun went away!!  It's been out all day!

[Mopar - D]
