Good job! I still remember the poor AITM castings.

It was a good idea to avoid the Mack F version and its unrealistic grille.

Thanks for the kind words! The old M.T.F.A. casting required a ton of grinding on the inside. The A.I.T.M. castings were a definite improvement. The Brockway grill isn't perfect, but it makes a pretty nice model. Thanks again.

You pulled off another great piece.  

I seem to vaguely remember their "new" day cab road commodes.  I think they had cats which really surprised me and thought it odd how half the engine was exposed.  Ahhh...amnesia alley.

Your interior detailing  and ability to work with resin kits are personal favorites.

Thanks! I've liked the daycabs since I was a kid because the engine stuck out the back!
