Well I decided to assemble the Scania just to see how it looks. I will have to disassemble some for the rest of the LED's, speed control, radio/receiver, and a few things to be finished. But basically it's done. Took some outside pic's, and I hope you enjoy.

OK boys and girls, I have some updates.:bounce::lol: Got the LED's hooked up, and I added the original sound unit. With that and the electrical unit I had no room for the interior. So I blacked out the windows which I hated to do.:( But what can ya do? The MFCU takes up less room than these two units believe it or not.;):p Here are some pic's.

And one more thing, I'm swapping out the S/S's for dual wheels and tires. I will be painting the wheels white with blue on the centers to match everything up.

Thanx for looking, Big John

Re: My new project...yes.

Re: My new project...yes.
 

truck is coming along great john..the blue lights accents it more with the blue colour also.yea are you going to match up the reefer with the same paint?:D

Re: My new project...yes.
 

I'll answer both of you at once...:rolleyes:;)...I don't want to let anymore out of the bag just yet. But I will say the way I picture it in my mind, it's gonna look good. And if things keep going like they are now I should be able to do more updates very soon, maybe even tomorrow. And thank you Dwayne.

Well I got more done on the trailer today and I must say I am loving this trailer.:D Not only can it be customized into a lot of variations of trailers, but the kit itself is different from any trailers I have built.;) I got the axles and dual wheels swapped out, and I like the way it looks...Can we say spare parts?:lol: Anyhoo here are some pic's.

Re: My new project...yes.
 

I like the running lights on the wing mirrors....nice touch.

Any thoughts to add lights to the sunvisor :D:D

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Thanx ricm.:D;) I haven't quite decided on the visor, but I do have a couple of ideas.

Big John

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Lovin' the LEDs, John. The LEDs in the mirrors and side skirts are nice. I think it's time to put some in the visor now. :D You sure can lay down a smooth layer of paint too. The trailer frame looks great.

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Thanx Nathan for the flowers.:D:p;) I would like to add some LED's to the visor, but I need to get the trailer done and get back on the "SLUMLORD" so I can take them to Indy.:bounce::D Time will tell.:cop:

Big John

Re: My new project...yes.
 

Well after running out of paint and ordering some more, I was able to finish painting yesterday.:bounce::bounce: So today was assembly time.;):p I have to install the LED's, put the floor in and roof on, and mount the body to the chassis.:D:D:D And hopefully soon Cindy and I can take this Scania and reefer out to Red Hill State Park...only a few minutes from us. And get some nice shots outside. I hope you all like what I did with the trailer as far as the panels. Have a look.:):D;)
