payhauler engine

[scones78]

hi everyone,well i'll start off this how do i section....
i recently purchased some of the re-issued payhaulers and so far i have only assembled the tipper body for one of them,
my question is what is the correct colour for the engine in these,
some say green some say yellow?so i packed it back in the box and it hasnt gone any further and i moved on to other builds
also does anyone know of website showing pics of a 1:1 payhauler so i can detail mine,
any help would be greatly appreciated
;)cheers danny

I believe the engine in the Payhauler kits are yellow Danny. In fact, I think just about everything in that kit is either yellow or white! I haven't seen any of these with a green engine, but maybe someone else can divulge some more info about this.
As for images, I just Google what I'm searching and alot of times I'll find links and sites that way...I can't think of any sites right offhand dedicated to this truck though....

I did the Motor in Mine Testors Yellow and then used about 3 1/2 Cans of Model Master's Bright Yellow #2917 On the Rest of the Beast..

The engine in that kit is a detroit. Originally from the payhaul factory the engine is the same yellow as the rest of the truck. Detroit Diesel green is also the correct color. This color would show up generally after the engine have been overhauled. As far as referance material goes, good luck (don't mean to be sarcastic but I have found little to none. The closest I have come is Terex. They bought out the payhauler. The new Terex's look pretty close to the payhauler but they are painted gray and white.

I agree Yellow & Green are both good colors for the payhauler detroit

Hello, Dupli-color makes Detroit green.On the can its called, ''Detriot-Diesel Alpine Green-DE1618'' And it looks just like the true color.
