That's a nice truck. I like the paint job. Not something you see every day. Like all your trucks, this one is just as nice. You've got a heck of a collection!

Ok I have to ask since I have seen a few of the Australian's use the word "cob" what does it mean? With the WWW and all of us from different parts of the globe there are words that turn up from time to time that have different meaning depending on where you are at.

Thanks

Hay Brad, I like the tri-axle cab over! The blue rainbow paint scheme is great! Did I read your adding a third trailer? Is there a limit to the number of trailers (1:1) you can pull in a train when the cargo is Haz Mat or in this case fammable?

Looks fantastic! I like tri drive....

yes, there is a 1:1 limit: 53.5metres max length (usually 3 trailers). doesnt matter if its dangerous...... well, this part of the regs dont care...

What are the intake pipes on top of the stock king hauler air cleaners? And where Sid you get the black plastic " Donaldson style" intake scoops from?

a guy in Melbourne makes them there 1/16 close anuff for me you can order from his web site www.Auslowe.com.au there in the ram tubes section theres a resin bit on top of them that you have to grind off its just the left over resin cheers hope this helps :D:D:D sorry forgot to tell you the chrome tubes are the tubes off the tanker trailer or you can use king hauler exhaust tubes

Or another alternative 6 or 7 inch and at the perfectly right scale, pretty much no grinding needed, highly detailed. Actually the only thing that was ever made for that purpose and that would fit right that scale :)
