Peterbilt 362( Great Pumpkin painted)


Recommended Posts

I started this and it was put on the back burner so I could finish my Paystar.I have two of these 362's and they where both warped it took a lot of work to get them in usable condition.I made a Double Eagle sleeper and was going to paint it like the United truck below but now I'm not sure what the paint is going to be.

Made a front bumper and some boxes that are being chromed.

This is where it is at right now. The fenders are stretched Turnpiker fenders.

Yes the cab is 1/24th scale and I think I'm going with gray for the frame.Thanks

This is a great looking project. The under cab detail is very good and I like the orange, this would look good with a metallic grey or silver frame!! Perhaps also try a white and black belt stripe or something like that.
