TruckerAL Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Finished this one up a few weeks ago. Started out as the 75th anniversary WF kit. Made the paint scheme up myself, scratchbuilt the mudflaps/hangers, exhaust, and scratchbuilt the updated steps. I even extended the rear hubs since they sat too far in the rim. Simple but looks great! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These freightliner kits are a challenge to assemble, but once you fix the few flaws it has, it's a relatively easy kit. I love them! Thanks for the comments everyone!

kilrathy10 Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Man... This is a beautiful build... I love it... Excellent work on the steps... Man, that looks good... I like the windows in the back of the sleeper, too... That looks really cool... And it always helps to have antennas like those... A statement piece, for sure... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leafsprings Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 You got this one sitting pretty! Like the way the front wheels sit correctly inside the fenders, not outside the fenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruckerAL Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Thanks everyone😊 Yes I agree, shortening the front axle, and moving it forward slightly really Makes a big difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Very nice work. Good job on the paint scheme. I've been eyeing one of these Freightliner kits for a while. Seeing this I think I've just added another big rig to my stash! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
