mikelo Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 OK, as an employee of Kenworth, you made me kring when I read "cuttin up a KW", but after looking @ your pics I can say you are doing a great job. I also am a fan of the grill. Can you get any more of the verticle bars? I only ask since it is a popular option to get an extra 4 bars, to in between those. Keep up the good work and keep us posted. Mike
SpreadAxle Posted October 16, 2011 Author Posted October 16, 2011 where did you get the stallion for the hood ornament..?? I bought it from STS, but I believe it's an Auslowe item. As to the grille bars, the photoetch set I bought only comes with the standard 3 bars.

They also make a grille kit to upgrade the GMC Astro and several others. https://ssl3.world4you.com/modelmakershop/index.php?cat=c126_Czech-Truck-Modell.html&page=3&XTCsid=7c4h03e6i2q59jk3bbg6ne4el5 Edited October 16, 2011 by Ben

Ray, if you have that photo etch kit, your KW is going to be a jewel! photo etch goes a long way for detailing. I just went on the site with this link. Have you seen the photo etch for the Italeri Peterbilt 378? Man! Got to get me one of those kits!
eviltwincustoms Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 Are there any other places that sell parts for the 1/16 Rigs other than GardenTrucking and the Wedico stuff? I would like to find some of these nice PE parts for the bigger rigs as well.
Truck parts Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 RAY , THAT IS GREAT LOOKING KW. I LIKE THE GRILL WORK YOU HAVE DONE.
Mr mopar Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) Cool looking grill ,would that fit the AMT kit? Edited November 9, 2012 by Mr mopar
redneckrodder Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 So where is this old kw at ? It makes me want to build one
Pavel A. Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Great work on classic. I've also this PE parts for KW and it is awesome. The guys from CTM will "rework" of this KW w900 parts! What I know now the hot new is PE kit for DAF N-series (italeri Cattleman). I will talk with them 30.11.2013 on exhibition in Bratislava. And I would ask them about news. PE parts you can buy also in www.car-model-kit.cz Pavel.
