kilrathy10 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Looks great, Man....Nice work on this one along with the trailer....Looks awesome....I like the black tanks, too.... Edited January 11, 2014 by kilrathy10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRaymo Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Looks good! I have the 359 wrecker has all the same parts as this kit. Good to see what that headache rack looks like assembled. And glad to see a correct color on that 475! Kinda kills me to see a yellow Cummins or beige cat like the box art on the snap 359. Where did you get the reflective decal for the rear bumper?

tbill Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Travis, all the decals on this build are on the stock decal sheet. also, the rack, when you put it together, it doesn't create a perfect 90 degree angle, it kind of 'tilts' and looks wrong....until you put it on the frame, then it looks right. JT, thanks, the tanks were a beotch, the halves fit horrible, and I don't have any alclad yet, so I puttied/smoothed/filed and painted body color. I tried to BMF one of them, but couldn't make it nice, so went with paint and BMF'd the straps. Edited January 11, 2014 by tbill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
