Goldminer Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Hi everyone, as my avatar suggests, I have untill now been a 'watcher' so guess I better show something I built last year... A&N 'Australian COE' transkit, on a Italeri chassis, with a modified Auslowe trailer - and the real truck.. Hope you like it.. there is a full pictorial of it in TMW magazine in the next couple of months Cheers, Kelvin Edited March 25, 2013 by Goldminer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilbenny Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Looks great. I like it. Im guessing the cage on the windshield is for wildlife, or does it serve some other purpose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ790 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Beautiful build! How did you do the pinstriping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldminer Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Thanks everyone, it was generally a fun build. THe 'cage' or stoneguard as we know them is exactly that, an effort to prevent stone chips being thrown up by passing vehicles and such and hitting the screen. The pinstriping was applied using KFS/Auslowe striping sets, which come in individual pieces - putting the corners on first and carefully measuring the gaps between for the straight parts - it took days to do the striping on this truck!
