ranma Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The decals came with a IH 4300 kit as a bonus. The frame is a Revell Peterbilt cut down to single axle, The cab and hood are glued together. The mirrors are a mix from a Revell Pete, and the L-700. The truck was supposed to be a box truck,but I wanted something different from that.

Dave Van Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 NICE WORK!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Looks really nice. Well done. Not sure a gasoline powered truck would have a big exhaust stack like that, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranma Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Cat V-175 V-8 Which was available on the L-700 truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) The V175 V8 was available in the LN7000, the LN700 had the 361 HD V8. It's your model, so you can do whatever you like (that's sort of the beauty of modeling), but I just thought you'd like to know.

ranma Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 And I found a good way to use the box part from the kit as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranma Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 19 hours ago, Sam I Am said: Where did you cut the frame down for the single axle? Just before the second suspension attachment area. I then used the second axle for the drive axle on this Ford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
