Hey boys and girls I'm finely back at building another truck.
I am starting to get settled in from moving,but still don't have a work bench yet:mad:
I built a W900A cab for someone on the board before I moved,and am just getting around to
building a second.
First thing I did is cut the fenders so I can re-shape them.
Then I sanded some of the body lines.
Now it was time to cut the hood:eek:,this part scares the you know what out of me.
Here are some picks of where I'm at now.

I love how crown royal is part of the equation for the build/parts list. These kw body that you do troy come out second to none. I still think you blue and white w900a you did looks like the most scale build on any of the forums for semis. Awesome job.

Hey sneaky, Can the body of a monogram W900A fit on a Tamiya chassis or is it too small?

If you look in his other thread, you can see it is a bit too small. It may fit a wedico chassis though.
