Dominik Weitzeri wished could build it box stock. the decals were missing, so i choosed a similar color. Perhaps, i will find some decals some day.

BozzerA very nice, clean build, Dom. She's showroom perfect!
Now about those decals?
Let me check a little later, and I may be able to help 😉

Bill NewcomerCool to see one built up. Yeah, definitely needs decals. Did you dechrome the fuel tanks?

BozzerDom, there's a guy on SM who has a kit for sale, that's started. I'm trying to find out if the decals are present? If they are, he only wants €20 for the kit. That's a good reason to get it. Then you could have a blank canvas for something else too?

Dominik WeitzerThank you very much mates! Much appreciated.
@Bozzer: you have my attention 😉 That sound good! I can contact the seller - he is in austria. That would be great and is a perfect idea!!!
@Bill: yes, i dechromed them, glued together and sanded the "gluelines". After painting, i used Bare Metal Foil for the Chromestripes. Same on the Airboxes.

Christian WAgree too! Less chrome on it is not that bad anyway. I like the color. Well built!
Is it possible to aply the decals afterwards? On my Freightliner it will be a bigge issue because of all that handlebars on the cabin and sleeper.

BozzerAww, Dom mate, I'm mega happy for you! Now you can finish your build, and you have something to toy with, when the mood takes you?
Who knows what you can do with it? Extended chassis, rat rod, whatever jumps into your head?
I'm just glad I was here to help.
Let's see this baby finished, and placed proudly on your shelf 🙂

Album info
As every Year, our Modelersclub had a Theme for new-years-meeteing. You have the full year to build, and in 2023 it was the Thme "trucks".
I have not a lot trucks in my stash, but this one remindes me to my childhood: i had a poster from the "T900 Australlia Truck" on my wall and i thought: if any truck, this is the one.
i was not amused after unpacking the truck, because all the decals was missing. At the end, its looking like this...
