      This truck is sending me to the funny farm, when i removed the tape from the glass after spraying there were glue marks & paint all over them.


      So i stripped the inside of the cab & removed the glass, but in doing this it broke of part of the window frame, so i have had to scratch build my own.


      In the first pic it is all finished in pic 2 i have replaced the small window & am working on the door window ready to replace glass using clear plastic from an old packing box.








      I have found the glass in this kit to be rubbish, as you look at it from different angles there are swirls & line's all over them & spoils the look, You can just see it in the first pic. so i am going to try & remove them all & replace them with clear plastic.


      Having fun (not).

            Replacing the naff glass will be worth it for sure John....... You've done some absolutely cracking work on this truck.

                        Am enjoying this. The engine has a good lot of detail.

                            Ok then slow start on this one only started it last night, tanker built but will need sanding & filling, axles built & primed ready for red top coat, not going to do anything fancy with this one just a little custom spray job, Iridescent pink/gold fading into gloss black to match the truck.
