That's pretty awesome! It fits together very well.
Here's a thought, take the front keg apart, grind off the locating nubs on the inner rings of the outer halves and reposition the center so the cap is up. I had to do that on my Li'l Mack project. I like the keg out front, that's really cool, and the stien brake handle.

Martin,
that is looking awesome! The roof chop and the barrel out front make it look long and low. The Beer Stein Handbrake is a fantastic idea.
This one is coming along nicely.
Keep up the good work,

Oh yeh!!! Thats coming along nicely!! Maybe really load up that bed with barrels from like 4 or 5 Beer Wagon kits!!! I was thinking of doing a "Heiny Wagon" (Heinekens) like that with a load of barrels. Maybe tip one and use resin or epoxy to make it spilling out of the bed! Keep us posted on this one!!

Thanks Steve! ;D Apart from the cab body it's pretty much finished, as i've started all the bed and barrel weathering. I placed an order with Dkal Dan but he said it might take a while and he sounded uber busy. Hopefully it'll be done by febuary for my first proper model show. Ineed to find a nice gloss black and some rootbeer candy paint but special colours are difficult to come by in the uk  I'll get searchin'  |
