When I did my Aerodyne in Comet colours, I got an extra couple of sheets of decals and gave 1 set to a mate and this is what he came up with.

Comet x 2 Dscf1712

It's based on this truck which has had several slight changes in appearance over the years.

Comet x 2 242cb610

I'm pretty sure it's based on the re released orange KW123? kit. Auslowe bullbar, rims and hubs, rh dash, stoneguard and bits and pieces.

Comet x 2 Dscf1714

The pipework for the roof mounted air intakes is scratch built as is  the roof spoiler, J steps and brackets. The tanks are real alloy from Auslowe.
Couldn't resist  a few pics of it along side mine.

Makes me think that I might have to redo my tanks! And the front hubs - I'll stop looking now before I find more to do!
