[Airfilter]

Hello everybody,

This is my first topic. I'm working on a K-100 right now, and looking for members whom are already build this truck, building it now or planning to make it. I'd be pleased for every advice, suggestion or comments on my work. Thanks in advance.

Nice work on the fuel tanks.

It has been so long since I have built this kit that I have forgotten any issues.

Great job on the fuel tanks! Did the tank straps come with the kit or did you make the straps? If you made them please let me know how and what you used for material. Thanks and keep us posted!

Thank you guys, i really appreciate your comments

Bruce: straps are made by me from 2 different types of self adhesive folias. The matt black one is a bit thinner, then aluminium on top. Adding a pic of the materials.

Nice work! Like the K.F.S. stacks! On the one I just finished, I used a resin Neway air ride rear suspension and a resin Marmon cab. Your frame is past the point where I deviated from the kit, so I can't make any comments on the kit from this point out. But other than the B.J. and the Bear kit, I think this kit wasn't re-issued? So the parts shouldn't suffer from poor fit caused by worn out molds. Fuel tanks were a lot of work though!

Here is a picture of my frame. Glad to have you aboard, keep up the excellent work!

What a superb looking truck. The colour scheme really suits it and works well with the chrome and interior. This would look great with a Great Dane Reefer behind it.

Best Wishes and look forward to seeing your next build.

Beautiful KW cabover! Love the old school color scheme.

Cheers,
