Revell Kenworth K100 Aerodyne


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

 

I've just finished my latest build and it was quite a biggy!!

Along with my love of old American Cars, I also love the Big Rigs of the 60's and 70's. So when Revell released the Classic Kenworth Aerodyne I snapped it up!!

 

The kit is Very detailed and in fairness was a joy to build!! Everything went together really well, juyt lots of it!!

 

The kit was built pretty much OOB but with a CTM Interior Photo Etch Kit added along with some aftermarket decals for the scheme I wanted to do.

I chose a scheme basd heavily on a beautiful fully restored K100 by Paul Cox (Google it it is awesome!!)

 

The model was painted throughout with Zero Paints and diamond Clear 2 pack Lacquer.

 

All in all a great build and sits very well alongside my cars of the era too!!

 

Anyway here are a few pics:

This reminds me of a TV series probably from the late 70's or early 80's called B J and the bear  . It was about an American trucker who drove an aerodyne . It was same colour scheme , but red instead of blue . It was on itv and seem to think the driver had a pet monkey . Does anyone else remember this series ? 

   Your model is spot on . A great looking truck the aerodyne cab . Was it Volvos Globetrotter inspiration ?
