chuckyr Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 So according to your example, you are going to have external breathers on that cab.
Porky Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 Those slamlocks look more accurate. Much better. Now, I'll be the first to admit that I don't know a darn thing about resin casting, but I think y should plug the holes for the mirrors. Unless you are planning on providing specific mirrors with the kit. If I remember correctly, the T600/T800 use dfferent mirrors than the W900. Just a thought. Hey Jim, Thanks on the cab. The W900's do run very diff. mirrors than the T600 & T800's, the holes in the cab are for those mirrors so they should be deleted. Just afraid I am gona loose some rivet detail in the process but I guess it would be better to loss a couple rivets than have the wrong mirrors
Porky Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 So according to your example, you are going to have external breathers on that cab. I think I am going to end up removing the breather plate and the builder can add it or them back depending on which truck they are building the W900, T600 or T800. If I remove the plate I think I would cast and include 2 breather plates with the cab. Any thoughs as it which way would be better ??? Always open for input.
Porky Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 I have had alot of people ask me about this cab working with a T600 hood. I took a few pics of the cab with the T600 hood on it, it fits it to a tee and looks pretty good on there I think. I am going to have a few diff. T600 & T800 hoods that will work on this cab so I am casting it the first time with the T600 mirror holes in the cab. Might cast another with the holes closed for the 900L hoods later. So if you are building a W900L on one of the first cabs you will have to close the mirror holes. Comments ??? Questions ???
disabled modeler Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Hi Porky! the body looks really good! i have a friend that drives for fed ex, ill have to show it to him....hes into semis big time,hes going to go nuts when he sees it!
Jim B Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 That does look good with the T600 hood. I'm sure the T800 hood will look great, too. Do you know what would have to be done to the T600 hood to make a T300?
