TruckerAL Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Bought this kit at Ollies last month, decided to build it up quick. Has Diamond Reo stripes on it, concerted to a single exhaust with a scratchbuilt frame mount/exhaust support, and custom made Peterbilt mudflaps.

the goon Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Very nice. Recently finished my first big rig tractor (Autocar A64B), and am about to finish my first trailer (gravel hauler). Think I'm gonna try a cabover. Mark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done the autocar dump truck 2 times and the tractor once. My suggestion for your first cabover would be the new release international transtar 4070a. Then after you're comfortable with That, try a 352 or a white freightliner. Can't go wrong with either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trick my mixer Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Trucker Al, That is a very clean build. The color and all. I like the old school single stack look. Nice job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leafsprings Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Like the paint choices on this one, yellow shocks, black air bags and white Detroit. IMO, the custom single stack looks much better than the kits cluttered dual stacks. 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! And I agree, I prefer single stack most of the time over a dual stack set up. Make it look clean and simple! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Really nice looking build. The simple black pinstripe looks great and suits the blue paintwork very nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
