Yeeees! BJ and The Bear is still my favorite truck, and TV show to date! That gonna be a very nice ride when its done! Its lookin good now. I'm glad you built that! Great job on 'er! :D

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

man, i just check this...your not done yet

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

that would be right up allfrees ally because hes kind of a clown anyway.
there ya go alfy you should paint it circus colors

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Looks sweet mate Silvio really does good work.

Where did uou get that grill from?

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

That is pretty sweet! I like it. The cab looks great, and the grill and lights match the look. I know you're just mocking up, but the front bumper looks like it's upside down. Lights on the top? Looking forward to seeing it done.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

i have seen big blue on the road years ago. red and white paint is nice looking.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

WOW.:eek: mobile home is an understatement on this rig. Sure is looking great and can't wait to see what it looks like with all the bells and whistles on it.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Alfy, i guess great minds think alike (even if 1 is a jeep liker...). This is what i was planning for my next build, looks like i need to find something else now

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

You snooze you loose buddy!

I love this build!

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Thanks for the Kudos Fellas :)

I have some parts in, but not enough to post just any pics just yet, but should post some more progress pics by weeks end

@Nathan

You are correct.. I was in a rush to take some pics and didnt realize the bumper was upside down

Thanks

Alfy

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Looking good Alfy. Leave the bumper like that, you could start a new trend!:D:D

Brian

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

This is a killer build Alfy now get off here and get to bulding.:p:D

Travis

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Thanks for the words Fellas

This is a slow build for sure

Some progress


Mounted tranny and "transfer case" I guess you can call it

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4085.jpg


http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4087.jpg


Got some air cleaners from russiloud and mounted them underneath the cab

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4094.jpg


http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4095.jpg



Also got some rims in...Not sure which ways to go just yet, so i figure I would get everyones input on what style rims would look good...Gotta thank danial for the last two sets of rims..Amazing craftsmanship

First

RC4WD Aluminum rims Rims with Russilouds Rear Hubs

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4088.jpg


http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4090.jpg


Daniels First set..8 Hole... Won't have any rears till I decide the style I am gonna go with...Not your typical alcoa's...Going for a custom look for the rig


http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4092.jpg



Daniels Second Set 12 Hole.. I really am liking these

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4099.jpg


Also got my Rivets in...Supposedly there are 100 in the bag

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/IMG_4096.jpg

Alfy

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Hi Alfy ether the RC4WD Aluminum rims Rims with Russilouds Rear Hubs 5th up from the bottom or Daniels Second Set 12 Hole 2nd up from the bottom both look good to me :D

Cheers Tracy

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Love the build so far, but you lost me with the wheel selections. i think that the stock wheels look better then those particular after market wheels. I feel all those wheels make it loose its scale look and give it a "toy truck" look. Just my opinion, truck looks fantastic so far. Nice work, keep it up.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Kind of partical to the the 12 hole rims, myself. They look good and are something different from the norm. I say run with them!

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

The 12 hole r da way 2 go! HOT HOT HOT!

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

This thing is going to be a beast, it's pretty huge!
Going to look great when done... those wheels look fantastic.

Can I ask what will be powering this beast ?

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Extended Sleeper..AKA Mobile Home
 

Pretty neat! First one I have seen.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

WOW, nice work...

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

She's looking good Alfy, great work as always. Can't wait to see her finished:D

Big John

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Really liking the 12 hole setup those are HOT keep the updates coming.

Your eight too that sure does not look like 100 rivets but looks can be deceiving

--Dan

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Lookin good Alfy. I like the 12 hole rims, but the only problem with them is the 12 lugs.

The only other problem I can see is with the A/C. the K100's had a guard around the front inlet so that the wheels could not fill the A/C with water and crap.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Hey Guys Thanks For The Kind Words...

Small Update...Been working on some more parts and just wanted to show you guys what I got

First is a set of air cleaners I had Russ Redo for me..From the open air intake to the enclosed containers

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF7496.jpg

And got a Beauty of a bumper from Ed....Cant thanks ya enough Buddy :cool:

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF7497.jpg


Slow build for sure now with the new addition, but will continue to post:D


Thanks for looking:cool:

Alfy

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Excellant build Alfy :cool:

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Very nice, great workmanship. I'll be looking forward to seeing this model completed and operational. Great custom bumper also.

Jim

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Well, Its been awhile but I am back at this thing

Ordered some custom fuel tanks and mounts

Modified the mounts to have them be a bit shorther...still need to clean them up a bit

With Sleeper

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF8617.jpg


Still not sure which way to go with the fenders

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF8618.jpg

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF8619.jpg

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF8622.jpg

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF8621.jpg

http://i334.photobucket.com/albums/m...d/DSCF8620.jpg



Still have a few things I need to figure out still

Running boards or not..Woiuld consist of using Knighthauler running boards..Only issue woith that is that they are not long enough to sit underneath for the tool box

Not sure If I shoul do a scoop for the sleeper

And like I said, not sure about the fenders

Thank for looking

Alfy

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

That looks BAD @SS Alfy!

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Alfy,
That is the sickest, badest if that is a word kenworth out there awsome job so far can't wait to see it finished and painted. I like the full fenders myself. I hope you are able to get the exhaust to look like the original and are able to mount them to the rear of the cab that would look insane. Good luck and again awsome job
Tony

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Lookin SWEET Alfy!! Great job on the styrene. I think the brown would look cool also!

Brian

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

I vote for the sweet brown paint job also. Looking great man. Keep it up.

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

That is one cool looking rig i think the ally fenders would look better . Not sure about the brown paint maybe midnight blue would look better . i would also move the rear axels abit ferther back

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

nice work that truck was the reason i built my truck so im gonna stay tuned in until you finish and I like those long tanks did you make em or buy them?

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

That truck is turning out great!

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
 

Well done so far. This is going to be an unique truck!

*applause*
