Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

nice job, i love the color.. but blue is my favorite color to begin with..

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

Hey guy's,I have a few progress pics!
I still have to put chrome rings on the air cleaners,add emblems,and several
other things.I hope to be done this weekend.

I goofed up big time.....I forgot about using the Kenworth door handles:mad:
I didn't realize what I did until I got out the sprue from the kit.
Oh well it's to late know.
I also changed my mind on the paint scheme,and went with the reinier not the seminole.

Trying to tape off the seminole was getting me pissed,so I took the easy way out.:(

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

I was wondering, did you make the KW grill? If so do you sell them?

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

That is one of the prettiest King Haulers I have ever seen!

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth

Well done!

Troy, This for sure helps me make my final decision on what truck to build next! I was even thing of a blue similar to what you used, now I may have to switch. Fabulous job, Sir!! The grill is from JTS correct?

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

Wow. You really laid a beautiful coat of paint on there! I can't wait to see all the little bits and pieces installed, and this truck completed. Very nice work Troy!

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

That is beautiful Troy:D:D:D, It's still not to late to install the KW door handles you could start again as I'm use there would be a buyer for the raw cab:D:D
So what are the plans for the rest of the Monogram kit any thing interesting ???

Cheers Tracy

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

:eek: Troy I want that truck :eek::p looks great :eek: just think soon you will not have to play musical wheels :p

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

Wow man you knocked it outta the park, I think the idea of using the monogram kits is a great idea if u can get em. I have two complete trucks the red kw and the yellow Pete kit, missing a few pieces that had broken off. I will be using wedico parts to replace the missing pieces.

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
 

Thanks for all of the comment's.....thats one of the things driving me to finish!
The grill is from JTS (Joe's Truck Stop).

I Still need to install lens's in the rear,make a back window,and install
