tbill Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 This looks like a cool build, I’ll be watching this one as well.
k100 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I really like those Aussie trucks , I will be watching this build .
jacobus Posted January 30, 2020 Author Posted January 30, 2020 hello , first thing i have do is make the airbags and brake,s closed , revell have them open so i use a putty and when its good dry sand them in shape also put some primer on some parts and sand it smooth for the sleeper i make this already and paint it , than i make it compleet and tape it in for the rest of the sleeper otherwise i wil have a problem with the windows and now i can glue it and tape the top for the rest to paint i thing thats the best way to do it til the next time jacobus
jacobus Posted February 29, 2020 Author Posted February 29, 2020 so change the frame and make it the right lengt for the wheelbase also looks of a put the cat in it ore change it for a cummins [ from the kenworth T 600 from revell ] this box so a dryfit from the total for the looks and the size of the fueltank,s and on one side with a airtank now also hope,s that it wil stop raining so than i can paint jacobus
jacobus Posted March 30, 2020 Author Posted March 30, 2020 wel , its go wrong cab and roof sleeper paint white and that was rubbish , so now its in the oven cleaner , i think it was to cold ore my one fauld to put no gloves on when i tough it frame is now painted in primer and must take some picture,s of it to show engine is a ??? witch one i wil use , the cat ore put the cummins onder the hood also wait for some parts that i order , hope its come quick its very strange weeks to stay inside and the mail put it on the front of your door and rings and step a away for 3 meters [ i can understand that ] says yep and byby jacobus
jacobus Posted April 22, 2020 Author Posted April 22, 2020 yesterday came finnaly some parts that i orderd some time ago , due the corona virus have it take some longer time to delivering now i can move on with the build , wel the hobbytable are full with some other build,s , now put it aside and go on with this aussie kenworth so much nice builds here that i can stay behind LOL jacobus
jacobus Posted April 30, 2020 Author Posted April 30, 2020 a lot thing to think about this one square fueltank,s ore round ?? and 2 on each side . bullbar yes ore no highrise sleeper ore a normal one color , i thinkin a kind of red but have seen now so many color,s that i am confussed engine cat ore cummins and so i try to make it a nice and shine one jacobus
jacobus Posted May 28, 2020 Author Posted May 28, 2020 hello , i think there is a curse on this built , everytime i fix some things something else get broken put the wheels on axle broken [ BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH material revell !!! ] so first dril al out and make metal axle,s before the other,s get broken hood looks not good on hight , don,t know how that,s possible but the front wheel looks in my eyes not correct , so change the hinges and so struggle on on this built 1 step forward and 2 back , now i hope that it wil go a little better til the next update whit the picture,s of a hopeful normal model ore W.I.P. jacobus
jacobus Posted July 3, 2020 Author Posted July 3, 2020 so , i am a little bit shame , forget to put and take some pictures of the progress have also wait longer for some parts do the virus [ corrona ] everything is slow , the shop,s , mail etc etc yesterday finnaly came some stuff at home so today can i go on other build must now clear the table so the aussie can build further jacobus

jacobus Posted July 6, 2020 Author Posted July 6, 2020 thats correct i orderd some parts and normal wait about 2 weeks now after 8 weeks its arrived now everybody blame the covid but i think thats not alway,s correct the put everywhere a brake on and sometime,s its not needed jacobus
Mopar - D Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Jacobus looking forward to seeing your current Progress pictures
gatorincebu Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 Jacobus , Looking forward to seeing your in pogress photos ! As for the Corona Virus thing slowing down package delivery. I heard from a friend. That the Us Post Office is not even accepting parcels for the Philippines. But that may change this month. And when I order stuff it takes a couple of months to get to me . You guys are lucky to get thing so quickly ! Be Well Gator
jacobus Posted August 6, 2020 Author Posted August 6, 2020 Thank,s Gator have make some changes , extend the chassis for 4 fueltank,s [ 2 both side,s now i think what wheels i put on , normal ore spokes paint already the chassis and the picture,s wil follow [ if the camera wil work he have some faults now ] and also a big clean up in my room . so much to sort out of the part,s [ like fueltank,s - wheel,s and tyre,s - suspensions , - engine,s and a big pile of transkits , i didnt know that i have such big pile of it - if i see more than 50 you think that i am crazy ] and a lot of kit,s from AMT - ITALERI , REVELL ETC ETC about 350 boxes so ppfff now a put the european on one side and usa on the other but thats a terrible job but i love it to see what i have also a bunch of trailers and car,s and the worst must stil come , about more than 1000 diecast model,s from scale 1:43 and 1:50 and 1:87 to sort out jacobus
