Warren D Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Well done, I remember seeing them all over the area. There is a set that has done a few truck shows in the area but the cab is white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsxse240 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 That is GORGEOUS! I freaking love it! Some reason the Freight launcher day cabs are required, in my eyes, to be painted green. Maybe because that's what Burlington Northern and CF used and they are both close to where I grew up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 That is one sharp looking rig!! Excellent work on every part!!! The green trucks do look better than the white! I wanted to build one of these years ago in the days before the world wide web. A CF driver that I knew was going to get me some reference pictures since they had quit using cabovers at that time. Years went by he retired, and I never saw any pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Great looking rig. Hey AMT, how about a reissue of those trailers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngtiger1 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Pretty clean work and the end result is super. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PettyKW43 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Nice build ! Displaying them doubles is definitely the most difficult part , I’m doing a Kenworth Road Train (4trailers deep) and I’m trying to figure out how I will display it ! 8 foot display cases are not too common .
