Well got the body shot in clear over the weekend I think it is looking good for my first attempt at spraying a body like this. Everything else I have spayed has been lexan so didn't have to really worry about the finish. Cant wait to start adding the decals and chrome.

The truck came out nice, and looks like to me you did a good job on the clear. Way to go.

Looks great! Nice job on putting together your very first truck! What's next? A trailer? Or maybe some upgrades on the King Hauler? You know you can't stop now!

Hi,

before you finish your painting, I'd like to make a proposal.

I had a King Hauler cabine when I started my roadtrain project. I glued the skylight and cleaned it. You will get a clean and plain roof.

Nice build for your 1st truck. Instead of trying to figure out what to build next, why not start making the truck look like it is really yours? Start doing the normal addition of after market goodies to both the trailer and the truck. Anything you add will only make the rig look better in your eyes.

Hello mate the truck looks great in blue, good job on the painting I just built my first king hauler and first time painting also - it's not easy!

I reckon you should take a look at some of the aftermarket accessories you can buy and customise this truck before building something else. Check out www.gardentrucking.com, and google 'custom big rigs' for inspiration. I suspect you'll be spending some $$$ in no time!

Matt.

i agree make it all jazzed up. i find it hard on which one to drive and sometimes only wish i had one. lol I think the king looks so good with some aluminum goodies on a stock frame
