Bennyg Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Hi fellas. This is what I'm working on. It's an Auslowe T904 conversion that uses a Moebius Lonestar as the base kit. Cheers. Ben The real truck: What I've done so far:
kilrathy10 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Wow....That thing is going to be a BEAST !!!! You Aussies don't do much of anything small, do you?? I thought we did everything BIG here in Texas, but y'all ain't messin' around either....

I thought we did everything BIG here in Texas, but y'all ain't messin' around either.... Australia uses a variety of trucks European and American based. There is a lot of distance between fuel stops at times, hence all the fuel tanks. Google "australian road train" and see some truly massive outfits. Cheers. Ben
disabled modeler Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I am not much for shinny flashy looking trucks but I like this one...its going to be cool.
k100 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I really like Australian trucks especially Kenworth , I ordered an Gold Nugget SAR from Melbourne Model Truck Accessories . But I never received it, I might have to order one of these T904 kits .

This is the second T904 I'm building. Cheers. Ben
Tesla Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 That's a fine looking KW Ben. I'm looking forward to this build.
gatorincebu Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 That should build out to a real nice rig! Be Well Gator
Bennyg Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 Hi fellas. Finally got back into this rig. First time using an airbrush with paint hardener and also used a xrillic top coat over golden yellow.
Bennyg Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 I have a lot of work to go on this. Got a C16 to build up, got proper yellow paint for it as well. A lot of pin stripes to go in and custom decals to come. Ben
Old Buckaroo Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 This is a tough looking truck your replicating. The paint looks great !I cant get over the fuel capacity - I would hate to fill those in real life.
Renegade Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Great start. Can't wait to see it finished.
Tesla Posted November 21, 2015 Posted November 21, 2015 It's good to see you back on this build...it looks good.
Bennyg Posted November 22, 2015 Author Posted November 22, 2015 It's good to see you back on this build...it looks good.Cheers mate. Glad to be at it again.Ben
Bennyg Posted January 23, 2016 Author Posted January 23, 2016 A small update. Started modifying an italeri western star bullbar to match the real one. Completed the rear cross member. Just a bit of sanding to clean it up.
kilrathy10 Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Definitely, gonna be awesome.....Looking great....Very serious undertaking....
