carsntrucks4you Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I had bought this kit year ago from Dans Model from Romania. I had cut the hood. This will be hinged. I also changed the resin front axle with a more stiffer one from KFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carsntrucks4you Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 (edited) I had added air and fuel lines to the chassis. It is not 100% correct but I think that it give a bit live to chassis. The engine will be next thing that I have to detail.

Arnd Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 HI that is a grate kit and perfect worked out. Well the price is at the first look high but it is totaly ok considering the guality and the high details. As you used the the frame and the engine it is easy and grate to build up this beauty. The plumbing looks grate. But think about the rims and tires, I remember Richard (AP40) telling me that the Italeri tires are too modern for that type of truck, alltough they look perfect to the rest. so long Arnd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used them only for a mock up. I hope that I find some old ERTL or amt tires. What about your N950? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBad Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Spoke wheels in the back to match the front ones would look great. Nice start to this truck though, I like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
