Have added the rear lights mudguards and mudflaps to the chassis and temporarily fitted the kit wheels as seen in pics 1-2. Also tidied the wiring from the rear lights and cable tied them before routing them through the chassis. In pics 3-6 I have assembled the cab roof and spoiler,windows,mirrors, speaker and electrical socket for the trailer lighting. More soon, thanks for looking. Al Spal attached the following image(s):

Another parcel arrives with more parts for the truck project surprisingly heavier than I expected. Got the trailer and the tractor units oil filled shocks and alloys. The first pic shows what arrived, the other two show the trailer parts, a kit in its own right with its own planked trailer no less. Will put some comparison shots of the alloys and the standard wheels up soon once I change the shocks over. Al Spal attached the following image(s):
