Ok here is the new rig in the fleet.. ;D I went down the KS to do some biz and met up with Ed and picked up some parts and another rig from him. The body is the best hand made body I have seen it is a perfect match to the kenny right down to the molding around the windows.

Here is a list of what is on it.

3 racing full alloy rims
Custom made kenny steps
Custom made tanks
Custom made rear light plate
Custom made grill
EBH air ride
EBH fenders
PMD 4:1 Alloy gear reduction
Doc Gear sound unite
Futaba 6EXAP remote
PMD Blank
PMD Swan
PMD Drive Shaft
Custom Lights and Stacks

And custom curtain side trailer with lift axle and 3 racing rims PMD rear bumper, Alum fenders, Lights, and Taz trailer frame rails..

Ok I have been working on the K900 the last 2 days and I got the frame all built and mocked up so as soon as the RC4WD Punisher drive shafts and then I can paint the frame so here is the picks..

Frame 2" longer now


Deck plate now covers the screws that hold the light plate

the Punisher Shafts came in for the K900 and the Pete so now I can tear down the K900 and start painting this weekend and as so as it is painted I will paint the Pete..

K900


Pete




I got tall the frame work and body painted this weekend I still have 2 more coats of clear to do next weekend on the body I was not able to get it on there with the rain that came in today.

I have a lot to do still but coming along nice I think. I is hard to get good picks of it with the flake in the paint and the shine on the body..

got the paint work all finished up on my KW900 and got some of it back together and am now just waiting for the MFU to show for it. I put bird screen on the stock air cleaners and also put PMD tank straps on the tanks, built some new stacks and then took the chrome KH dash out of my some Hong Kong Hauler and also the clear glass out of his truck and put it in the KW with a GI Joe ghuy at the wheel and then made some mirrors out of King Hauler to fit the KW. So here is what I ended up with today..

[Tamiya Cowboy]

New Dash and mirrors and driver with the windows rolled down.



I still have to paint all the window trim and put in the smoked lexan windows in the sleeper plus wire the MFU and extra lights control

I also got the frame work painted on the green pete and I am putting it back together right now and the MFU came in for it as did the punisher shafts. Stay Tuned.

Well I got most of my wiring done on this truck..I polished and wired the light plate got everything fitted in the cab I am working on the cab now I have the high and low beams wired as well as the blinkers I am now working on the 10 roof lights. Then I will still have to wire the 8 sleeper lights and I am waiting on PMD air cleaners to come in and i will have 4 lights on each side of the air cleaner too boot..

Well after many hours this weekend I have been able to finish my Kenworth W900L. I got all the MFU and extra lighting done on the truck but I am planing to add more down the road. I got the strips on it along with the hood emblems and also a new sun visor. Also trimmed the sleeper windows out with flat black for the gaskets and then smoked lexan for the windows and finished with 8 bunk lights in the back of the sleeper.

I do have a new set of PMD air cleaners coming for it and new steps in the works. I am also going to put a lighted bulk head between the fuel tanks with blue lights in them.

I will get some picks of all the lights on tomorrow I have to charge a battery and get another E-Flight plug..

My favorite truck of yours Paul, outstanding work!!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Thanks there little buddy I am not going to put all my builds in one thread anymore easyer to find for people..

[Roadmasters]

Sounds like a good idea, only think I see with that is that when we get bigger you might have to search abit more but that should be better than goin thru a 40+ page thread. When we gonna see more new builds from ya??
