Grain the doors onthe cab both open and need a bit of work to get them to fit right , the sleeper is detailed inside as well I most times leave the roof unglued to show off the sleeper interier. Also there are no holes in the cab roof for the ac so as you said you wanted to leave it off.

this may help you out ::: http://public.fotki.com/modeltrucks25thscale/model_magazine_articles/car_modeller/cm05_jan_1991_cummi/

Eagle thanks it does help I even googled that engine and didnt find any thing

Eagle Iam new to building European trucks and dont know much about them . What I want to do is detail the engine with fuel lines and run an air line from it as well . May be my question wasnt very clear in what I wanted. I do have pics of the engines for Scanias and Mans and Renaults but none for the Mercedes 1854. I have 3 mercedes under construction and want to detail the engines

need info from the European truckers her onthe 540 hp engine i the Mercedes Actros. What I need to know is the fuel system lay out and when the injector pump is and howo the injector lines run .Also where the air compressor is located.

I hope every one have a good Thanksgiveing and for those traveling be careful and return

dwc43 if it is the sleeper Iam thinking of it is Mercury sleeper and that pattern was standard on it

dwc43 try this site for detailing your engine http://public.fotki.com/modeltrucks25thscale/model_magazine_articles

What is the differance between the Mack DM 800 and the DM 825 xs
