I just had a look at your log again, great work! I also saw a sneak-preview of the wheels you will be using; Italeri CGT wheels?

Besides, the Chevy tanker is also really good!

Thanks Alex. No the tyres and wheels are not Italeri Gun Tractor but they are off a Tomy copy of that kit which had rubber tyres and seperate rims. I modified them and cast them in resin.

With the spare rubber tyres I cut them down to 16" in 1/35 scale and made the rims to suit so I had better looking wheels and tyres for the smaller trucks as well.

part 09 to the build log will be up tonight Oz time hopefully.

Heres' a teaser for part 10 which will be put up next week. The cab roof is just placed for the photo and is again a modified Tomy Gun Tractor kit part.
