Hello... Pulling this one out of the box this week... Would like to get the body hood primmed and painted before winter comes.

hope to be working on it this week.. cant wait to see it painted. Now if I can only escape my work .

[kilrathy10]

Awesome kit.....I built one of these a long time ago.....Got thrown away by an X girlfriend.....This is a great kit....Mine went together without any issues....I've gotta get another one of these.....Good luck....

[Jim B]

The only fit issue I've had with mine so far are the hood pins! I cannot get them to line up properly & I think the hood is hitting the top of the radiator.

[Scalper]

Cool... I will wash the body tonight..then prime might do a green fade paint job on it.

[Jim B]

Beware the Dreaded Red Plastic! It bleeds through just about everything & turns it pinkish! It's absolutly horrible.

[Scalper]

hopefully Tamiya grey primer will do the trick. .. red not fun ,...

[Old Buckaroo]

I have found Tamiya primer to work very well on odd molded colors.

This looks like a nice kit , hope to see you get back on it after seeing the start date on it.

[Scalper]

Thanks Sean.. Yes its a Old WIP.. but not the oldest I have going. My first WIP on here is still going. 69 Camaro and a Peterbuilt 378 .. thanks for the motivation .

The decals look awesome, and I had no clue that the Italeri kit of parts was ever produced; I may try to track down a kit.

[Scalper]

Yeah the Italeri parts kits are pretty cool... one of them even comes with a side monted crane..

[Mopar - D]

Hello

Well I was able to get a bit of work done on her last night. Engine completed and mounted . Picture of the painted Cab. Hope you guys like

Thanks for looking

[kilrathy10]

Looks real nice, Man.....Can't go wrong with that green.....

[Scalper]

Thanks. I might do a fade paint on the hood.

Andre, good work. But be carefull by front wheels (or front axle). The biggest problem by these W900 kits is that the front wheels are not in centre of fenders. Look carefull on the picture there is on the box, you can see it. This problem is on Kw w900 RoG. Monogram snap is o.k. Just glue front axle maybe 1or 2 milim. back on chassis. Paul.

Yes, I discovers that, too. I'm not sure if it's the axle is too far forward, or the hood is too far back. The front of the hood doesn't line up with the bumper, either. Gives it a litte bit of an under-bite look.

[Scalper]

Thanks for the heads up Paul Might have to take the front axle appart now.

[Scalper]

I was just looking at the box and yeah the front wheels are if centre. Argh.
