Excellent job on the Road Boss, you've really captured the old TNT Bosses, always had a soft spot for them.

Glad you fellas like the boss , going through your fleet numbers richie i figured that the number i'm going to put on her will be KT -187 as it's the earliest boss in the list . Because we got door handles and the later versions had cam lock door handles .
I did see the boss photo on other thread , i sortof stole it to work out the correct height of orange line and blacked out bonnett . Got into an argument awhile ago with a bloke that TNT did have boss's as i hooked up to a trailer at brunker road next to one , don't you just love a good disscusion LOL HA HA HA HA

Well, are you going to fit the in-famous TNT bullbar, it just aint finished till you do fit it ?
What did you use/ how did you make the TNT transfers on the door ?
The bonnet looks like it's the longer version, thought ALL the TNT Road Bosses had the Aussie shortened bonnet ?
Maybe Big Cam could advise on that one, as he did drive those vehicles for TNT.
