Kingworth T404 SAR
Hi guys n girls,
I've been looking around this awesome forum for a while now and thought I'd better contribute to it. I haven't been building very long so I'm not as good as a lot of you. There are so many great builds on here, so here goes (I hope this works) This is the truck I am replicating (hopefully). It is an ozzy Kenworth T404SAR. I drive this truck for a living. http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...ps7zovrsyn.jpg This is what I started with. Shortened the sleeper. http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...ps5e24nse1.jpg Cut off the hood http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psrexucmga.jpg The hood the right shape http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psyqrm4oad.jpg Sleeper roof and mouldings started http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psagaftapo.jpg A few holes filled, sleeper doors and tool boxes redone. Couldn't help myself, i had to see what it looked like with the stacks and grill on. http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psoyt08afl.jpghttp://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...ps2rucls1r.jpghttp://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...ps2l54ienz.jpg |

Re: Kingworth T404 SAR
I wasn't happy with the way the sleeper doors looked, so I changed them
http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psnk5rr400.jpg Added the air intakes, sleeper steps and grab rails, also repositioned the blinkers http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psa4onwbus.jpg |

A few detailing pieces.
DG placard and decals made by me. Driving lights by RC4WD. Badges, aerials and headlights by PMD, lit up by Tamiya MFU.http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/l...psrnnsj24b.jpg |
Re: Kingworth T404 SAR
Aluminium tanks plus tank straps by PMD, steps from the kit. I had to purchase a second set of steps to go on all 4 tanks from good ol' Ebay
