Bennyg Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 I’m ready to go for this build off with a KFS Mack F Series. Cheers Ben
Bennyg Posted January 30, 2019 Author Posted January 30, 2019 The colour scheme I’ve chosen. I will use a red chassis though.
Rusty92 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Wow that looks really cool. I have looked at KFS before and they all look like great kits. Best of luck to you.
drinkone2 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Great choice on both the color scheme and the F model Mack
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 I've been wanting to see one of these cabs built! I built a M.T.F.A. cab years ago, these are much nicer. Looking forward to this one! Welcome to the Build Off!

Looking forward to this one! Welcome to the Build Off! I got hold of an old truck model world mag to use as guidance. I think these are amongst the best kits out there. Plenty of auslowe going on her too. Ben

tbill Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 I really like the look of that, look forward to this build.
gotnitro? Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 Very cool truck ! What's the purpose of the screen below the windshield ? I assume it's an aussie thing since it has a roo catcher too, stone deflector maybe ? The reason I ask theres pics of aMack Ultraliner with the same screen looks killer

k100 Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 I’ll be following this build , I got the daycab version for Christmas .
gotnitro? Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 Ben -Thanks for the Intel on the stone guards
SpreadAxle Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I like the choice of truck. I'm interested to see how this one turns out.
stitchdup Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Cool choice, I've been eyeing up some of the kfs transkits so will be watching this.
Rusty92 Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 The window guard is interesting. Will you be doing that as well?

Bennyg Posted March 21, 2019 Author Posted March 21, 2019 Nothing to update this month. Works been a bit busy. I also need to get the Auslowe Mack SuperLiner Mk1 finished. Ben
Bennyg Posted April 29, 2019 Author Posted April 29, 2019 April update. Working on a coolpower engine that has been cobbled together so far from the parts box. Also, I’ve fabricated turntable holding rails (don’t know what else to call them). cheers Ben
Bennyg Posted May 29, 2019 Author Posted May 29, 2019 No progress this month, but I’m on leave from work this weekend, so I should be progressing soon. Ben
Hermann Kersten Posted May 30, 2019 Posted May 30, 2019 Nice project and the cabins from KFS are of a very good quality. Hermann.
Bennyg Posted July 1, 2019 Author Posted July 1, 2019 Nothing to show this month. Study has gotten in the way. Ben
