JerseeJerry55 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Hello all. I am in the midst of my early 1970's White Freightliner project. Building it as an early 1970's type unit. The colors are Tamiya TS-11 lacquer for the cab, and Rustoleum Colonial Red satin finish for the frame and associated parts. About 50% completed at this point. Will keep posting as I go along.

Assembled the wheels last night. Test fitting her this morning. She's getting there. Will paint the engine, and transmission tonight and work on the interior. Done by next week? Perhaps.

I did the weathering for the most part last night and added the company livery to the doors of the tractor. The engine is next and also the radiator and plumbing, and perhaps some more weathering as well. Will post pics when that is completed.

JerseeJerry55 Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 Weathered the wheels and tires with acrylics I've been using. Also added the rear deck plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
