I remember you struggling with the bleu tank - or whatever it was - some time ago, when you used the aluminium tape. Which looks better on the reflector lights? In the photo they seem about the same, but it's not clear. You've achieved a lot today, I'm impressed. Did you have any time left over to eat?!!!!!

that was the exhaust for the Volvo models Ivy.
the chromesilver is about the same color,but as you say,it's not that clear as a mirror.
not even that much done today Ivy,had to strip the Christmas tree and other Christmas stuff and bring that to the gallic and stuffed it away,went to the Industrial estate here for some aluminium stuf,but they where closed.
and than i still had time to eat also,i'm a kind of marathon runner.

after i picked up the truck friday eve i made the rubberflap on the topside of the trailer curtains and al the straps black,with a black marker.
that goes better then with paint and brush.

Well, at first when I had a quick look earlier, I looked for some mistake on the colours, but they seem OK. So it must be that you have four trailers but only three cabs and three sets of trailer curtains. Is that it? Ah, don't be upset, Thijs. Did you really need four altogether? I know you put a tremendous amount of work into it all, but if the actual number isn't important, maybe the extra trailer will be of use on something else. There is sure to be another truck that it will fit.
Though, of course, you will have paid for that extra set of decals, I know.

well it seems that i have the luck afterall.
an old collegea of me from TSI wanted a model of his Renault magnum too,and they drive now with those brinor trailers,so i have to buy 2 trailers,1 for a brinor and the other one for a other model for my own.
some times,even i have some luck.

[wherrygirl]

I don't understand why you are buying two more trailers. What was it that you were getting in a paddy about, then?

[janihudi]

i have to make 2 other renault magnum's,with brinor trailers.
instead of 3 i sprayed 4 trailers,1 to many,this one i wanted to use for a model of a company whch i have driven for,Jac H Kool.
so i buy 2 new trailers,1 i made a brinor of it,with the 1 i already have became 2,and the second will be used for the other company,Jac.H,Kool
but i have now also to buy 2 Renaults too.

I need a diagram ...

[janihudi]

ehhhh,in what way?
i dont know what you mean.

Hi Thijs. The combination of trucks and trailers seems rather complex - what you have and what you need. I can't hold all the facts in my head at the same time.
