Bronzekeg Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 looking better all the time Dan. you might want to check your rear fenders for clearance on the low boy trailer. the front drop on the trailer is pretty short. lesson learned with an autocar kit.

Thanks Ken. Also thanks for the tip on the lowboy trailer. I’m not using the AMT lowboy trailer I’ve got a custom detachable lowboy trailer kit being put together by a friend on the Mopar in Scale site. I should have the trailer parts in a week or two. I will check for the clearance on the rear fenders when I start building it.
Mopar - D Posted February 4, 2022 Author Posted February 4, 2022 Little more progress on the winch plus I added a hydraulic tank and step/tool box on the frame. Then I painted and coated the inside of the mixer drum before gluing it together.
slusher Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Your a busy man, Dan I just went thru all your pages and read about your builds. Love the Kenworth teal nice detailed dash and killer headache rack you built..no I can follow your excellent project…

I’ve built the engine for the Mack still need to paint the chrome fan and install. I’m hoping that the temperature here gets above 50 degrees so I can spray some clear coat on the KW and Mack frame. I’m also working on getting the Mack cab ready for some Sublime Green and White paint.
Mopar - D Posted February 6, 2022 Author Posted February 6, 2022 Temperature warmed up enough to clear coat the KW cab and hood plus the Mack frame. Started installing the smaller parts on the hood.
tbill Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 Looking good! Now get to work, I need another update?
gotnitro? Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 Outstanding work! I can't imagine busting out 2 full builds at once ..I'm having a hard enough time doing one lol Keep up the progress

Thanks Alex we are probably looking by the end of March to have all three of them together. I’m 99% done with the KW and will be working on the Mack while I’m waiting for the detachable lowboy parts to arrive.
tbill Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Man that’s sharp! Only lacking some chrome on the air cleaner housing straps. 1
