I'm building a B-17 Flying Fortress and I lost a small clear plastic window. I recalled that I did not use the side windows in the Pete 352 that I built 4 years ago so I pulled the old box out (I save all my old boxes, especially this Peterbilt box because I like this box art so much.) and got the clear plastic piece to modify and use in the B-17. While I was in the old Pete box, I found a (approximately) 1/4 scale version of the box art that I forgot was included with the kit. I had to cut, fold and glue the 1/4 scale box together. Here it is displayed with the full-size box and the 352.

My brother gave me the Pete 352 kit with Coke decals for Christmas. I'm going to build it with the stripes from this kit instead of the Coke decals.

I like it in yellow!

Thanks Driptroit! This is the second time I’ve painted it yellow. The first time I built it I was a teen but I burned it down a few years later as my interests changed. Not this time though!
