Big Rig Group build update #2

[@scaleautoworkshop4426]

Hey Bryan, I have the same kit, thanks for paving the road for us that have this kit. We need a lot of patience when building these kits. Vaughn

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

You are so right my friend. Thanks for watching Vaughn!

[@SpunkeysModelShop]

Looks like you have everything set up nicely and have a good plan on what you want to do. I will be watching for more up dates on all your builds and I always do as well ones from Mrs BG.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thanks Spunky! Both she and I really appreciate that!!

[@wwkdiecastmore5647]

Nice looking big rig, will be watching to see this one done, thanks!...Bill

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thanks very much Bill!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yep, they are challenging...................Save the rivets!!!!!👍 Lots of sanding to get to the point your at now.................

[@206joesscalegarage5]

Nice update! Those rigs sound like a challenge to build !

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Yep, but that's what makes it fun!!

[@wudbcarmodeller2713]

Very time consuming work no doubt. I'm enjoying the updates on all the big rig builds. I hope fortune favors you on this one Bryan.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thank you very much Geoff. I appreciate that. I can use as much luck as i can muster on this one lol.

[@robsmodeladdiction692]

YES YES YES they are quite a challenge. A good amount of guessing and FFFRRRIIIck frack words used. You have a great start with all the sub assembly, the hard part seams to be just about over.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thanks Ron. I wasn't thinking about it that way, but you're right! Now for paint and and finale assembly 😊

[@thomassoltis5862]

Great video brother cant wait to see her in color brother keep up the awesome work

[@poppysrcandmodels]

Wow! What a kit! Great job so far!😎👍

[@chopperbaldwin610]

Well, I have that kit in my stash because I love cabovers and everyone is saying how much fun (NOT) it is to build. Mine will sit for a while now. lol Keep up the great work brother man and have a grand day.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Yeahhhhhh, i wouldn't build this one again.

[@brandoshobbies5353]

Looking good nice work on the cab👍🏻 don't you love this kit?? Lol. nice work buddy!!

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

I just want to hug it to pieces!!!

[@MadGeniusProductions_MGP]

I think you and me are in the same boat when it comes to these big rigs. Yours is looking good so far though. Save the rivets!!!!

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

SAVE THE RIVETS!! Or else the rivet counters won't have anything to count 😉 Need to do an update on yours buddy.

[@bilgerat7694]

Nice kit will be following the build mate

[@garyparker2969]

Very In- Depth Update Brother N Now I'm Convinced I'll Never Build a Big Rig,,, Course I Never Was too Interested in em Anyway, 😕😕😕,Have Fun ,God Bless All

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thanks Gary! Right now i say i won't do another one of these again....6 months later, oo a big rig kit!!

[@tcwagsmodelcarshop9373]

Hey Bryan, yes this kit is very challenging to say the least. I believe those filters on the side of the engine are suppose to be vertical. Just helping you out 😊👍 TCWAGS

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Ah ha!! I can fix that. Thanks mate!!

[@samuelvasquez8170]

Looking good so far

[@bkmodelcars]

Lookin good lot a work👍👍

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Boy howdy!

[@jonathangodwin9410]

Yep oil filters in the wrong place. Oh well if the engine fits in place. Go For It!

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thanks mate! They live where they is. lol

[@jeffhaty5715]

Nice up date

[@hobbytimewithpapadan8436]

All I can say is better you than me my friend. No way I could handle that. I’ll stick to the snap big rigs lol. You have fun now ya hear. Papadan

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Copy that! So no way you want to do a swap then? Lol

[@chrish.8241]

I am struggling with this kit right now, so many thanks for all your tips. It looks like you glued the wheel flanges to the wheels before fitting the tyres. Is this correct? Thanks again.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

I believe that's right. It seemed to be easier to do it that way other than try to glue it with the tire in place.

[@chrish.8241]

@BGsModelWorkshop Yes, I think so too. Many thanks.

[@dewaynemiguel3349]

Laugh at that little chair that's what we had on the passenger side,alot of us took the seat out to put a tool box water jug etc that enguine was before the turbos was a 290 Cummins originally they were actualy red the later 335 etc were tan.

[@ramblers69]

It's just very old tooling, much like the dragsters, you have to have a lot of patience, lol, :)

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Yeahhhhhh, i started the dragster today....mostly the word "seriously" was uttered.

[@alwoodsmodellingmayhem]

I know this kit is fighting you mate, but you're winning! Keep at it sir.

[@Jeffsmodelgarage]

Can’t wait to see all that styrene in paint the AMT autocar has some of the same issues so it’s AMT lol thanks for the update Bryan

[@charlie418791]

If ya can build....ya can build.....you can build.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Thank you my model guru.

[@bigeddie1231]

i did the same thing with my cab but could not get the tulip in and look right so sanded the top filled the top and fyi that seam line blows

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Yeeeeeep!

[@t4zalteredrodz905]

Yea, everyone SRS to be building that extra-hard, extremely difficult, Frick n crack Freightliner from Round 2. When I was a kid, ( about around the age you saw in the photo of the Ice Patrol) 🐿, I built a cabover Peterbilt. Doesn't Round 2 have the Peterbilt cabover out? Or is it only Frick an track Freightliner? Just wondering? So the hard part is done? C-ya Bry. God Bless you n have a safe weekend too. Frick n frack Freightliner? Oh well...🐿 Peace my friend. T4, out.

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

Ha! Frick n fracking cracking freightliner lol. Seems "the Captain" might be building the Peterbuilt.

[@travisweeks7819]

👍👌😎🍺🍺🍻

[@thecaptain2521]

Wow our kits are very similar; however, I lucked out as my cab is all one piece with no rivits on the roof. SAVE THE RIVITS!!! If I do this next year there is no way I'll do another AMT

[@thecaptain2521]

Shpoo poo I spelled rivet wrong, I knew I should have checked LOL

[@BGsModelWorkshop]

@@thecaptain2521 thanks sir! I need to refresh my memory on which kit you are building. Because I want to do that one next time!!
