lol Dave says "what spokes?" lol I really am laughing out loud!

................

okay, lets keep going then...


Step 11....sort of.

Assemble the two Fuel Tanks (one for each side).
Simple enough...roll the main part and connect to form a tube.
Glue on the end discs to form the Fuel Tanks.

You will notice on the frame sides, two marked locations for the fuel tanks to locate.
A bead of glue along the marks, and press the Fuel Tanks against the frame.

BUT!...don't do it now.
The exact placement of the tanks is not super critical, but they have to be positioned
just under the rear of the truck body...so its better to wait until the body is in place
before locating the fuel tanks. I'm just sayin'...





...

so why don't we get to the body then?...

The Truck body is all one piece that requires cutting out and scoring in multiple places.

This is, of course, the back side of the printed Truck body.
The extra part at the bottom left of the photo is the "bumper" will will attach to the front of the body.
And the two small thingies are inside glue tabs for the front corners.



...
Score and fold the part to produce the complete Truck body.
The front has an extra layer that folds under
to create a shelf for attaching the body to the chassis.



...
And this is what the body looks like...if you assemble it inside out! LOL
Or, maybe its a "paint-it-yourself" model?!

Either way, the body is ready to attach to the front of the chassis.

I'll show the real thing tomorrow.

Okay, now I am really confused. Is this some sort of Tyrrell-like truck with two sets of front axles, only with duallies?

Just a Cab Over, so the driver is the first one at the scene of the accident.

You know, from looking at the frame weathering, and different wheels front to back, I would almost think this is going to be a truck from Mad Max.. Just a ponder of course

But the spokes are the back wheels! I'll be quiet now

Could it be from Transformers: Age of Extinction?

Jon,

Movie is called Duel,

models of both vehicles exist, both available over at ecardmodels.com

and I think Ray is correct, the fuel truck from Mad Max

But the fuel truck from Mad Max wasn't a cab over, not even in the new movie
