WIP Köln truck
The chassis has some parts moulded on already. Naturally one piece is already broken off.
The gearbox looks quite alright
The exhaust pipes were moulded together
So I split them
The tip needed some putty, but came out nicely
The seats needed a backing too, probably never to be seen
The mount for the rear fender are frustratingly in the way for cleaning up the frame
So I got them out of the way
I replaced the plastic with 2mm brass rod and 1mm styrene sheet
Looks much better
Sanding the styrene to some identical pieces
The seam lines were impossible to fix
So I split the tank again and cut the other half from the frame
Internal strengthening of the tank

BozzerThese curbside chassis, really upset me. Just like the Volvo VN. If the manufacturer, went to the trouble, of making an engine, and separate frame parts, with other kits, then why would they cheap out, on kits like these? I love what you're doing with this though. Keep the pictures coming, buddy 👍
