          Looks superb with the tractor unit.

            Made a lot of mistakes on the trailer. paint looks ok in the photo's but there are one or two imperfections in it, also if you catch the light you can see there are some join line's, the kit has no chrome parts it it so i had to use chrome foil & some of it did't take very well, also i wanted the black to cover at least half the tanker, ha-ho maybe next time.

                    Superb really must have a go at a truck, truly great build mate, how big is the whole thing (truck and trailer) it looks a fair size. If you don't mind me asking how much was the truck and trailer, can you mix and match (I notice italari and revell do trucks and trailers can you fit an Italeri truck on a revell trailer

                      Hi Kpnuts the truck & trailer is 27" long, & as far as i know you can mix & match you'r trucks & trailer's


                      As for price i payed £45 each from my local hobby shop, but u can get them cheaper on line, i have been looking at other trailer's but all the good one's come from the US.


                      Hope this help's

                            That's an awesome glossy finish! Paint across the whole thing looks good


                            What are the hydraulic hose coupling thingies made from? And are the flames decals?

                              Sorry to say Matt the flame's are decals that came with the model, as for the airline's it's just coiled wire.






                              Hope this is of help.
