Awesome! Thanks. So the 6 Tooth 32 Pitch Hardened Steel Pinion Gear is what I want? Or do I want the 6 Tooth 32 Pitch Hardened Steel Long Pinion Gear? Should I get more than one? Sorry for all the questions - thanks for the help.

You want the short not the long and even with the short you will need a spacer to space the motor back a little. As the pnions are tapered a little at the back.

Default Re: Scania R620 Stretched ....first-pitch

started some more detail work and almost have the light bar done. (light bar needs touch-up/trim painting and wires run to batt. and switch)

And started on the flatbed controls. 1 more fill n sand, then primer and silver.w/black knobs.






and the controls:





the controls house the 9V for strobe power, soldering wires now. But need to find a handy place for mounting switch? Don't want it obvious..

That is a perfect idea

I am going to cut box & make it deeper for switch. Going to use center lever, that will be easiest to mod.



Plus it is a great way to plum all the wires to 1 spot!!

Got Freddies rails in on Fri. and all his work was FANTASTIC!!

A "THANK YOU" going out to him!!


Had a few hours this weekend to get a bit more progress, it is starting to look like something now!! Realized today... this thing is l-o-n-g!!


..... AND.... all that work on the light bar was kinda for nothing.... it looks WAY to low and out of scale compared to the height/size of cab!! (see last pic.)

I just ordered a whole bunch of various sized square stock and round stock styrene, gonna build a new one better sized once all that material gets here.

Let me know what you guy's think so far..... ??

Looks fantastic man, really nice work. Just looks such a perfect length and axle placement.
Am very jealous!

Default Re: Scania R620 Stretched ....first-pitch

got a couple more pics:

Some more progress, but I'm used to painting a body w/one rattler and having extra for the next one....
This build has 3 4oz. rattlers ALREADY and I just ordered 3 more! I thought for sure 3 would be enough!!?? (obvious newb mistake)
I have to lay a few coats on cab and the back of a few parts PLUS the running boards and fenders .. still!!

Anyway, here's a few(if you can see the trans. in finish clear coat(testing waters there) you can see the real finished color on it.
