TAT KW wrecker

[tbill]

ok, here's what i will be doing,

nothing is out of the box yet, just starting my thread

[cowboy rich]

Always liked the look of that kit but never built one, I'll enjoy watching.

[DRIPTROIT 71]

Great project!! I've built the truck and the bed, but not together. Looking forward to seeing this one.

[Mopar - D]

Tom looks like another start to a great build. 

[gotnitro?]

[k100]

That will be a nice looking rig .

[tbill]

nothing picture worthy yet, but i have the frame about 90% assembled. color-wise, i'm thinking a green color, just a basic wrecker, nothing 'flashy', a new work truck look is what i am after.

[Tesla]

I'm looking forward to see this develop!

[Canso65]

I've been drooling over this kit when I go to the hobby shop.

Looking forward to seeing this come together Tom.

I've had the previous issue of this kit on my "to do" list for quite some time, I know once I start I have to commit to finishing it. I want to use a more modern looking truck and am thinking the Revell 359 tractor from a few years ago would be suitable and compliment the Can Do wrecker I also have waiting to be built.

Looking forward to seeing this one done, maybe it will give me the nudge to get started on mine!

[tbill]

well, i have done some work on this, just not much, lol. have a hand full of projects on the bench at the moment, but i think tomorrow night will be engine assembly at build night. so, stay tuned for further developments

[Mopar - D]

Looking forward to seeing what you do with your engine Tom. 

[tbill]

ok, been working on this between things, so, here is my bit of progress,

have the engine in color also. updates will be slow for a bit untill i get some other builds finished off, then i will be focusing on this. thanks for looking.

Looking nice so far.  Frame is straight & level (always a plus); and the bed is square.  Very nice start.

[Superpeterbilt]

Looking good Tom ? 

[kilrathy10]

I've always liked this wrecker bed....Just something about it, you know....You've got a great start....Looking good....

contrary to popular belief, i have been working on this, just haven't been on-line much. a little mock up of where i am heading with this, lots of painting left to do, and i may add the white stripes from the KW snapper kit to it. color is GM 'Fresh Lime Green' and looks close to lime ice, the interior is tamiya racing green. 

hope to have another update soon, and get time to catch up on all the builds going on in here........

[tbill]

well, decal situation has been resolved

had some decals from the revell 32ford 5 window laying around and thought, lets see if these will work, i kinda dig it. it's all just mocked up so don't let the crooked parts concern ya, lol. more to come soon, thanks for looking.

 

[mikemodeler]

I like it Bill, definitely different with the flames but it fits! I have one of these to build, gotta get busy.

[Mopar - D]

Tom wow those flames really make this tow truck. Nice progress. 

[purepmd]

Nice work, Tom! Love that green! I, too, like repurposing decals. Great results with yours.
