Hi everyone,

I first didn't plan on posting this cause there's Not really that much to see but I thought why not!

It's a KW Aerodyne Level 3 Revell Kit which I built out of the box first. It looked a bit boring so I did a bit of cosmetics and pimped my reefer a bit to fit it!

This is how they looked before:

The reefer:

I added steering, some decals and new front rims:

I also added the Carrier freezer (self made)!

Very nice, and what a difference the reefer unit made on the trailer.  I love those KW kits, so much room for improvement out of the box.  The front wheels really make it stand out. 

I remember years ago scouring the stationary stores to find those nice nickel domed thumbtacks to make hub covers out of.

Wow, thanks everyone! Didn't think the cosmetics changes we're that obvious.

When you're doing touch up work you know what you did but don't think others see it right away. Thanks for your nice words and thanks for watching!
