I have now changed the colour from translucent green to gold as the photos show after an epic battle to keep the green in place, I gave up and decided to hit it with the gold and see wot happened fortunately for me it turned out not too foul so I'm sticking with it. It will be hit with a very heavy case of weathering to simulate a hard working B-Triple here in Adelaide my home delivering stuff to a building site. Dingo

Rig has come to a holt as an Aussie B-Triple and will be built as a U.S. rig due to time money and other factors will hopefully finish it soon or in the new year, who knows? ??. Dingo

A slight correction to this project it is back on again, Kerin says that if I don't build it as originally planned she is going to divorce me, man I don't want that so now I have to not only buy my new "Western Frock Coat" for our gun club cowboy shoots, I also have to get the rest of the stuff to finish off this project oh well that's the fishing down the the drain, oh! well no fish anyway.

Yea thank Wolfie, I tried to do a reasonable job of my painting but sometimes it just doesn't work out that way. This time however I think I've done that job of rescuing and thanks for the comment it is appreciated not like other who just want to run U down and not help at all, by the way if there is something U don't like about my trucks or cars (when I do them ) let me know the info helps me improve and by jimmied I can do with improving sometimes. I'm hoping to get this rig finished by Feb 2012 if all goes well with saving and income of funds over the next 3 months, don't cry poor anymore as no one listens. Dingo P.S. You may have seen on other forums where I was known as Russell this is not my real name, my real name as shown on my birth certificate is Dingo just thought I'd throw that in.

I've told Kerin she can go jump in the lake this project is going to be a U.S. rig after all as I can now no longer afford nor bother to save the money required to buy the B-Double trailer or the RHD dash to make it an Oz rig so now it's all go to be finished then I will get rid of it as this one has been a pain.

At the beginning of this year this is wot my Volvo looked like after a mysterious crash one night. Now some months later it looks like this BUT with a few blemishes that can't be helped oh well it does look like a well used truck anyway. Believe me the missing pipe will be replaced as soon as I get some more silver paint. Dingo
