Hi guys, I’m looking for put together a Rolex 6034 replica which resembles the 6036 Killy. Could anyone suggest how to make this build and where to find the parts? Any advice is welcome!

There used to be a 6234 rep out there- that's the closest thing to a 6034 that I know of.
Trusty calls this a 6238, And there were a few early early 6238s with a similar dial, but the 6238 is mostly known for the all silver dial or the rare black dial.

You will need to go the Vietnam route for something decent. That is get case dial hands and movement. Build it yourself or get a modder.

Yeh, you can go the Vietnam route if money is burning a hole in your pocket. But be ready to spend $5K usd! I think the 6238/4 from Trusty is a good place to start, if it's available. Problem with Trusty is he never edits his selections and these watches do go out of production. But I've done well with Marvellous, he's found a few off beat reps for me lately. But the 6234 is a vintage model- the rep factories may have moved on.
BTW, Valjoux 72 movts are very pricey these days, I've built a few rep/frankens with them but I'm done. The Venus 75/ST1903 is a good substitute for me.

For a 6036 Killy the only route to have a decent watch is a custom Phong case, Custom dial but you have to provide macro pictures of the gen and a V72c movement.

In this post, KJ2020 refers to Nembo over at repgeek, might check with him.
I got a 6238 JKF from Marvellous but that was 2 years ago- but it never hurts to ask. Although I saw another post where someone was looking for a 6238 and Marvellous couldn't get it.

I tried to get parts like complete case, bracelet, dial and hands, without movement if this is the very problem, then I will fit one of mines and get the watch working :)

Unfortunately, all the factoryes , no longer produce most of the vintage models and so even TDs don't have them , Marvellous only has what they have left
