Wow! a stunning build - I love the combination of the orange/blue parts alongside the textured Graphite mouldings.... even the seal on the fuel tank fits the colour scheme!

Congrats on completing what is a unique & interesting build!

I have a full pack of washers, I've only found 4 Kinwald mini-locknuts so far. How many do you need altogether for this truck?

One thing that I remember from back in the day; IF you plan on running it be sure to give that orange fuel line a good rinse - both inside and out. The mold release is DEADLY and will kill glow plugs instantly and finally!!!! It's usually only on the outside but I devoloped the habit of washing it after one LONG day of trying to figure out what was wrong with my truck!

VERY nice build - makes me want to get going on one of mine!
