I thought maybe that you were going to dent the inside is all. Looks great! Looking forward to seeing more!

Warren D Posted November 21, 2019 Author Posted November 21, 2019 This is a shot of a mock-up. I'm trying to get the tag axle set, I'm going for it in the up position. Got the rims and hubs set, need to do the fronts. Cab got first coat of clear, when it sets I'll do the decals. Interior needs paint, engine needs finishing and paint, still a ways to go. Have to get the hubs, rims and tires together for the dolly,, paint some parts. I'm not going to finish-locate the 5th wheel plate until I have the trailer done to make sure the location is correct. Rear tires and rims are from Moluminum, tag axle wheels and tires from the Lindberg tanker.
Warren D Posted November 29, 2019 Author Posted November 29, 2019 The DK triaxle dump is just about done, need to paint the side boards for the dump body. The red is hard to get right in photos, it's a dark red metallic pearl. I have some changes to make on the dolly as the dump is a tad lower than the dolly. Still need to get started on the dump trailer, once everything is done, I'll move it to Under Glass.
Pete68 Posted November 29, 2019 Posted November 29, 2019 Warren Thats looking really nice very East Coast
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Looks Awesome!! I like the paint scheme!!
Warren D Posted December 2, 2019 Author Posted December 2, 2019 Thanks, I'm really having trouble with getting the pics to look like the real thing. That red is just sparkly in the sun. Another of the Aztek pearl metallics. Glad I have a decent stock, they have been dropped by Testors.
Tesla Posted December 3, 2019 Posted December 3, 2019 Awesome color combination that sits well on an Autocar!!
