Anyone know where to get the cat engines that you can put your motor inside? PM me if you do.

Re: My new project...yes.
 

That is a great looking color. The chassis looks nice all painted up. Looking forward to seeing the cab on there too.

It's been a loooooooong time since I posted on this truck, but here it goes. I have changed the color on the truck 4 times and the colors stick this time.:):D;) I have been painting all week and finished up today, at least on the truck. And I decided to bite the bullet and put the Tamiya tri-axle reefer trailer instead of the tanker. And the trailer is going to have my own twist on it. Have a look at the truck as is.

Looks great! Blue is a popular colour for the Scanias and I can see why, fantastic job so far :cool:

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Thank you Berman, much appreciated.:);)

Re: My new project...yes.
 

I really like the Scania truck, it seems very good choice of paint

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Nice work on painting that chassis. It turned out really nice. Air brushed, or rattle cans? I can't even tell. If it's the later, it must be Tamiya paint!

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Lookin' good John, Keep up the good work!!:cool:

Tim

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Thank you, I'm trying boss:D:);)

Espeefan thank you for the compliment. And yes it is Tamiya paint rattle cans. Tamiya paints are more expensive than Testors, but the finish is a lot better. I remember reading a thread that the late FGD had and he said he used Tamiya paints, and I always liked the results. I gave it a try, and I am pleased.:bounce:

Thank you Tim, and I will keep on keeping on...:lol::D;)

Re: My new project...yes.
 

I like the blue and white will look great together... I like the truck to, I will build one in the future...

What blue is that John..


Wayne

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Thank you Wayne. The blue is Tamiya metallic blue. If you do get a Scania, you won't be disappointed.;) TS-19 is the color code.

I started adding LED's today and took some pic's as I went along. I think a few on the underside, and that should do it.
