Starting my daycab Kenworth

[Snowman]

Super cool rig, it just looks so bad. Bodywork is sweet, really nailed the KW look. I am so envious of the rims, they compliment the truck well.

[Stylin n profilin]

Just awesome Troy...Hey Nathan...Seminol is a type of paint design..Kw was the first to offer this design...This was the conventional design..



this was the seminol in cabover design..

[BRICKNICK]

That Kw is looking awesome man, nice job. Hey Jon youll be gettin my cab soon LOL. Im waiting till after Indy to drop it off.

[Espeefan]

Ah ha! I understand now. Yeah, that paint scheme is making a come back. I see it on a lot of trucks, even if it originated on KWs first. That would look good.

[sneaky-pete]

Thanks guys,and yes Dave the fenders will be blended to the hood.

Hey Amanda,welcome to the forum!

I am removing the lift axle because I change my mind a lot ,and was going to build a lowboy in the near future for this truck.Now I decided to use
it to haul my cattle trailer.

Here are a few more pics of were I'm at now.



This is the paint scheme I am going for

[ihbuilder]

[heavy_duty]

Troy.That truck,along with your other rigs are TOP NOTCH.Man your trucks look cool and real, like the 1:1 rigs.Great job.

[russisloud]

the blue on the frame really is great looking.

[Dreamweaver]

This things lookin killer Troy. The steps look spot on and I like the blue..

~Mike~

[Espeefan]

Looking really good! The steps are very nice. Off the same kit that my new Cat engine came from? I like the blue. It's a good color. I remember you thought about doing a faded paint scheme. Still headed that way?

[mustanggal2005]

Very nice,I like the step where did you get them?
I wonder why you took out the 3rd axle,LOL

Thanks for the comments from all of you!

The paint is sonic blue pearl,and your right Nathan....the steps are from
the 1/16 monogram kit.

As of right now,I still plan on doing the worn out,faded paint,
lots of chrome... trucker on a budget look!

[BRICKNICK]

I like this build a lot, keep it up. The colored frame adds to the realism of the kw, weather its that blue or the red it used to be. Nice job.

[sneaky-pete]

I had a little more time,so I laid down some more paint.
Now I need to wet sand,add the gold and white and clear coat.
This is the nerve racking part.

[Claus]

That truck is beautiful! I know your building a daycab, but with the cattle trailer I think a Wedico 60" sleeper would really look nice on the truck. Very sweet truck you have there.

[Brian in PA]

WHOA!! That is looking good there Troy!! Keep up the awesome job.

Brian

[BRICKNICK]

this thing is looking sweet man, I'm loving this build

[nenard]

I may have missed it but what blue is that? Nice and deep and its not done yet. Gonna be hot!
