Kenworth 850 Off Highway

The fuel filters look nice Reg! Simple to make too. I like that. At first I was lost because I couldn't remember seeing any fuel tanks on the truck, but then I back tracked in this thread and saw it's behind the cab. Any of these trucks have regular round tanks under the cab?

Thanks Nate. The filter cans are made from a broken plastic coat hanger...Very simple and already white!

Some of the trucks had/have round tanks but very few. Most of the spur roads that these trucks drive on are not very forgiving so the under slung tanks wouldn't last long. Generally the steps are the first thing to go and the fuel tanks are right down near that height. This shared pic shows a truck with a tank on the side of the frame. Notice the bent steps...
