Bige37 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 This was my weekend project! I used the hairspray method for the weathering though it was hard because I use rattle cans to paint I do not own a airbrush so the paint was removed with rubbing alcohol! The exhaust stack was removed and I made one out of 1/8" aluminum tubing. The mud flaps on the trailer and rig were sanded down and then I used a dremell tool to chip the ends to look worn! All in very pleased with the kit for a snap-tite kit I'm pleased with the detail on the tanker and tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bige37 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Thanks for the good words! Yeah I was sceptic all of this kit of any snap tite kit really but with a little doctoring it turned out good I'm thinking of getting the snap tite freight liner next! I have the revel 359 peterbuilt coming in a few days that's gonna go with the texaco tanker bring on winter! Whoo hoo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petetrucker07 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Be prepared for a headache with that Texaco tanker. It will try your patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Your Mack & trailer look really nice. I agree with Clayton, the AMT tanker will try your patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
