I know I said it before and I'll say it again. This KW is looking very nice, Rick. The paint came out very nice. I never got to watch an episode of Movin' On, but I definitely remember the truck, from my youth. Didn't it normally pull a cattle trailer? Between this one and your T800, you are going to have some fine Kenworth models. I swear that T800 in your avatar is a 1/25 scale model, but I know it's not. Did you ever have a build thread for that truck? I'd love to see some more of it, in detail.

Thanks Nathan. On the t.v. shop thy pulrd just about every trailer, mostly a box van, My plan is to build a 40 foot van and paint is the same color green with the stripe to continue down the side.
I don't have a thread on the t800 but i'll have to do one.

Rick I personally would have to change it. If I was making a replica of a real truck, It would drive me up the wall knowing this was wrong. I think it looks good the way it is, however if you look at it from a Graphics point of view the Arrowhead on the hood is on a horizontal plane and the one on the sleeper is on a angled plane...

Just my two cent's worth. Of course in today's market that is only worth half that..

I was going to say leave it, but now that I see the actual photo of the truck, I think a respray is in order! Not to take away from your paint work thus far, because it's great, but if you are going after a replica of the Movin' On W900A, then I think it would be nice to match the color and the stripes exactly!
