Dutzie Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 (edited) Hello all! In between work, landscaping, and laying flooring upstairs I was able to grab some bench time. Here are the first photos of my entry. This is my first attempt at a full resin build. The Mack and chassis are from AITM. The tanker is from Lindberg. The colors will be red and yellow.

Dutzie Posted May 31, 2020 Author Share Posted May 31, 2020 Thanks everyone. Not much time to work on the project this week but here are a few updates. I seem to have a slight rake to the truck. When I add the trailer, it sits a little high in the front. I currently have a set of Italeri tires on the trailer. I need to order some taller tires to eliminate some of the issue and to add to the time period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutzie Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 Here are the recent updates. The decals are on. Still need to do some touch up on the trailer but I think the build is coming along nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
