There are so many things to love the 80s for. This truck is definitely one of them. A really nice model, I like its flair. I will try to build it in 1/72 someday, I hope that's ok ...

Someone would ask me how I imagine a Kenworth - here it is! A very nice model, great!

You can literally feel the charm of the time, which he doubtless helped to shape. A pure, hard-working muscle man, reproduced very beautifully.

The truck is great, the Alaska weather is unique! Great art, indeed!

An eye catcher! You have to look at, you can't help it!

A hard worker from the forest. In a simple and practical work suit. But really handsome!

Many thanks for the friendly welcome! I will endeavor to provide you with some photos of my current projects soon. I am currently working on three cabs, Marmon HDT AC/BC-86, Kenworth K100 and Mack Superliner. Because I'm considering giving some of these models in silicone molds and later making 2 or 3 resin casts, the work is slow. I have to work very well thought out to prepare replication as simply as possible. That means, I cannot complete a cabin in one piece, but have to manufacture individual assemblies.

This fantastic model reminds me that i have to go to the car wash again! Really well done.

This model is stunning an this truck is real eye candy. Where can i get more information, blueprints, drawings or dimensions of that? I want to built one like this absolutely!

I simply have to like beautiful models like this one, i can't help it!

What a dream of a car model! I hope I can build a similarly beautiful tractor trailer one day - in my 1/72 scale.

Hi guys,
My name is Torsten, i am 51 years old and come from Germany. I registered in this forum because I am very interested in American Big Rigs of the 50s to the 80s and the quality of the models presented here is unique. At the same time, i hope to be able to get expert answers with one or the other question about these great trucks. Originally i'm a figure sculptor in scale 1/72, i created animal figures for diorama and architectural modeler (www.stenfalk.de). Unfortunately, due to painful problems with my hands, I'm currently forced to think a little "bigger", but I don't want to give up my 1/72 scale. That's why I'm now trying to build a small fleet of Peterbilt, Kenworth, Marmon etc. through conversions or scratches, because unfortunately the model building market does not offer a lot of building kits. It is not easy in Germany to get helpful material such as plans or dimensions - maybe i will find some support in my concern here.
Kind regards,
Torsten
