As all Ertl truck or trailer kits this was a pleasure to build. Most of all assembling such a different model was a very interesting change for a car and truck modeler like me.

The only shortcoming of the kit were really nasty seams in the recesses of the rear tires.

 

Nevertheless it was a very nice kit. Hopefully there will be a reissue some day.

Thanks again for the replies!

 

That looks great!  Just curious. I have this kit, but would like to build it as a 4040. Are the numbers part of the yellow decal, or are they separate?

I am almost sure that the black numbers were printed on the yellow stripes, but I think it should be possible to scan these stripes and modify the numbers with Photoshop or a similar app.

I agree. I did that some years ago with the backhoe loader. I will show the whole rig in the Big Rigs forum.

              I will be watching for your post in the Big Rig section.
