In light of the shock news of my purchase of this kit I thought a full WIP thread would be in order. Many of you will have bought and built truck kits before. This however is my first. I'm sure I will make mistakes and do things in a 'non' truckie way. If I'm making a mess of it for gods sake tell me it wern't cheap! Any way Ubiquitous Box shot Chassis frame fixed together and a start made to sanding it back to remove various mould lines and slide block locators. Some other tank shaped dubries that it says I have to paint white. Seems an odd colour for tanks on a ladder chassis but what the hell I'm assuming they know what they're talking about! More when I get time... THC

THC Normally those air tanks would be painted at the same time as the chassis and be the same colour. good luck Ted

I generally build as much of the chassis as possible then like Ted says it all gets painted the same colour. Including the engine sometimes. Heres one I did earlier before spraying.
