My problem: Where with the accumulator?

For a deep emphasis to reach I built the accumulator lengthwise into the chassis. I removed two tie bars from the chassis and fixes the accumulator with the safety device lever from the "old" accumulator box in the chassis:




Sorry for the bad image quality

The chassis got a cover from Diamond Plate:

I have now also an idea for the airbrush topic of the truck:

The cab becomes black and the chassis remains red.

This one go on the backsite of the cab....

...and that on the hood:



Both pictures are adapted to each other from the style

At present i wait for my Airbrusher to do his paint job. He has many jobs to do at the moment and i meet him Saturday on the Intermodellbau in Dortmund.

So i have time to build some litle accesoires for the cabine:





Ok thats an american Truck and "Tchibo" is a german Company, but i think thats ok - Mc Donalds gives it also in "good old Germany" and i am a coffeejunkie

In addition I has trie to copy my good old "Lehnert HS-120" in 1:14,5 (and this with my very big Fingers )

The Original:



...and my "Big Fingers Copy"





On a shopping tour my wife found a litle dog and she means that this is a good "Shotgun". Ok i love my girl and so "Lucky" come on my "Shotgun Seat":
