BlackDragon Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Hello, i want to show you my first try with an resin conversion kit from a.i.t.m., a Peterbilt 351 as daycab. Base kit was the Round 2 release of amt Petrbilt 359 California Hauler. Additional changes were steerable front axle, wheels from Dave Natale and scratchbuilt mirror support with 0,4mm wire. Thanks for looking, hope you'll like it. Michael Edited February 12, 2016 by BlackDragon Remove tags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truckabilly Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Yes, I do like it. Plain and simple truck. But it takes some effort to make a model look like that. You ve done it just great. And nice trailer too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10thumbs Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 This truck is just cool. I really like the way you make it look so simple and clean, as said above. Lots of talent to make it look like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 You have really got some skills!! You have captured the look of the 351 for sure!!! My favorite builds are old school builds. This one looks like it drove right up out of 1969. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
