I like the old rust effect and look but on a nice new shiny looking chassis ? Is it going to look right? It would be nice to see the rusted look on the steps/ battery box perhaps.

Love the fleet and all the pics thanks

Haven't got any links to it, but i'll try to get some pic of it for you.

This is going to be a sweet rig when it is finished Although I have never seen a PIE trailer with a spread axle before.

Thanks for commenting, the PIE stickers arrived way faster than i expected, so I never got around to rebuilding the axle set up, but I´ll get it done, it needs a set of red wheels as well I think.

No I don't know who build it, but I do know that there is a build thread somewhere, I'll see if I can find it.

In the first page, I really am diggin' your Kenworth King Hauler. That is the closest model truck I have seen to something I am going to build. The only differences is that it will be stretched some more with more bling bling, but still a working heavy hauler. Keep up the good work!

Thank you and thanks for your comment, the Kenworth has seen its share of different setups, and I think it will probably see some more before its finished

doing nothing on a sunday

[Roundabout]

got a new cab in the mail today, its a SCANIA L111, the cab was produced from 1974-1981 as I recall, i'm planing on making it into either a ASG truck or something you would see doing the middel east runs in the 70´and early 80´. still got a long way to go, but hey it´s always nice to have something on the shelves.

[Bigrigger]

That is a nice cab, should be very motivating! Can't wait to see it under construction!

Ill keep you updated, but I think its gonna be a slow build this one.

I've been wanting to build a hot rod king for years, so when I saw Biggus' Rat Rod King I thought now was the time, I ordered the FRACTURE engine (think I been looking at it for a year or so) from rc4wd, dug through the boxes in the attic for an old cab I got from a friend maybe 4/5 years ago, found a set of VERKERK low-profile tyres for the front axel and a set of super singles from a tamiya reefer trailer, suspension i also from a reefer kit engin is a carson.

Love that L111 cab. Coincidentally seen one on the road the other day too. The old Scanias sure had class.
