Yes, I know I have to fix that. Maybe I'll use selfmade wheels and other tires! The tires on this one are so stiff that they won't fit on the outside of the rims.

Thanks! No fifth wheel on this one! The tank goes right on the frame! Might make a three axle tank trailer. But only if I get my show case done!

The sleeper is printed! The tank is in progress!

That is one beautiful dash! I'm almost ashamed of the ones I've done! Keep going! This is gonna be some treasure!

Interesting approach! Hope it turns out as you expect! I'll keep watching!

Thanks! Yes, I saw your thread. Good work! Thought I'd share mine since there are quite a few of these in different scales on several benches! I didn't bother to hide the gaps between the cab halves! You seem to be doing a really good job at closing all gaps and making a nice truck out of this kit! Keep going!

Thanks guys! I'm quite satisfied with the colors too. Thought a two tone with a separating stripe might lighten it up a bit! And yes, it is a Freightliner! Always liked 'em!

Hi everyone, since there are so many Freightliner cabovers in this Forum I thought I´d join in and show mine. Nothing special. I didn´t bother to improve any AMT errors or hide gaps. It was I think of the first truck builds, next to my Marmon Conventional, I did after about 25 years or so. The side steps aren´t put together very well and the weathering attempts weren´t very successful. Still I´m not ashamed of it but I have done better builds. Hope you enjoy the pics. Feedback is also welcome! You all know the box! Thanks for dropping in!

You're doing a great job. Considering it's your first big rig you have a great knowledge of details! I built that one too in a quite simple version of a long cab three axle tractor. No improvements of AMT's errors or anything. Gaps between cab parts included! It was one of my first truck kits after about 25 years or so. Yours is turning out much more professional already! Keep going!

Great job Jeff! That weathering Looks perfect! So does the leaking engine! There's still lots to learn from you guys! Thanks for each lesson!

Wow, Just Like Jeffs Pete-engine your Plow has to be an original projected down to size! There's no other explanation! Awesome job!

Awesome! What a beautiful cockpit! That's something I still have to work on! The tach-o-graphs will be designed this weekend! Hope they come out worthy!

This is going to be cool! ?

Engine looks great Jeff! Admit it, it's an original engine projected onto your workbench! ?

That's gonna be another beauty!

Air con looks awesome! I also Like the sun visor! Great job Steve!

Looks good Ron! I could change the headlight surrounds a bit so they don't extend so far. Just tell me! Keep going with the great work!

Nice job! ? Thanks for the description!

Absolutely! How did you cut the cab so precisely? Nice job! The long chassis looks great.

Jeff was faster! Yes, my Pacemaker kit came with both dashes too, no idea why! But I wouldn't have known the part no. anymore! Can't wait to see more of this Ron!

Oh yes, I agree! It's like in a good restaurant. Variations of cabover, presented in top quality!

No problem Jeff! Thanks for the pics! Maybe I'll make a new one sometime!

Looks pretty good to me! The decals seem to adhere pretty well! (I don´t know how to delete these emojis either. Once it´s in there, you can´t get it out!)

HI everyone, since I don´t have any space at the moment to build a completely new truck model I decided to rework this one: Not long ago I had built this Pete with a scratch camper box from this Revell easy to build kit: This was the reference picture: To tell the truth I was never really satisfied with it and thought that this nice truck deserves something more worthy. So I removed the camper box and decided to make something new! I´m printing a sleeper for it at the moment since I had used the original sleeper for my Diamond Reo Conventional! When that´s finished I´ll make a tanker out of it. It´s already designed and I hope it turns out good. I´ve changed the nozzle of my printer from a 0.4 to a 0.2mm and hope that the printing lines will be reduced a bit. At the moment the truck looks like this: It´s a bit dusty but I can fix that in no time. The printing will take quite a while since the printing speed is reduced by 50%. Gives me time to do some cosmetics!

One of the nicest I've ever seen! Great job!
