you really nailed this one roy!! looks just like the real thing, poor ol BJ truck just a sitting and getting abused. dennis

lol hey just atleast they told you they would send it up, all i get is we have no plans on releasing that model. lol dennis

yeah i think a rally of indevidual emails would have bettr luck, but i think it will take a constant verouge. weakly monthy etc to strike their attention. lol or they could just be content and making plenty of money just doing all these old kits.

TUCHE maybe if we all started emailing round2 like i do once a month about the pete 352's lol they might actually make some newer trucks. lol

has anyone asked jerry to make these into decals yet?? i bet if he had the brochure in his hands he could do it. i remember back when this truck hit the market, a freind of my dads got one dennis

nice job on the color scheme travis, this will be a nice build dennis

whoa there hemi lover !!!! the only short leg up that rog and italeri might have on amt/ertl is they have models of more modern trucks but as far as detail strait out of the box amt/ertl has them whooped all over the yard . if you ask me them rog and italeri kits are only good for two things = rim and tire doaners !! FORD = still american family owned motor company and been stomping dodges since the day HENRY FORD helped the dodge brothers open thier first plant !!! p.s. just a lil frindly teasing stewert !! dennis

dave i too would love to see the pete 352 come back into production, lol thats why i ask round 2 about once a month when they are gonna bring it back but i get the same resonce: we have no plans of reproducing that model. but ill keep bugging them about it lol!!

sergey you are doin an excellent job on this truck, the detail is super amazing !!!

i agree that is an awesome looking lil fleet ya got goin there!!! great job on all of them

red always looks good on a pete 359, but it looks like its time to get a bigger set of shelfs!! lol good job on the truck and trailer dennis

the amt 352 kit is a pacemaker, the turn piker has race mirrors, race rear fenders, diff grill, strait exhaust pipes , super singles and a big texas bumper on it. all of that just to make it look a lil racy lol. hope this helps

dave ive said it before and ill say it again, YOU DA MAN!!!!!!!! thanks for bringing life to this awesome motor

1985 was the last year KTA's and the V8 cats were in over the road trucks due to smog restrictions in the U.S. i believe 1981 was the last year you could get the KTA or V8 in a KW as they discontinued their extended hoods when they started producing the W900 untill 1990 when the 007 W900L came out. the cummins 444 did have a few problems, most do to guys changing the buttons in the fuel pumps to give it way to much fuel and crankin up on the rail pressure. but they were most definately a force to be reckoned with, they could take on the big 425 cats and thats saying something for that time period. lol and im a cat lover!!

i think the cats woud have been the 3406 c or e, not sure about the L10 but i know the cummins 444 was out then. thats a while back lol dennis

that is gonna be a very cool truck when its done, lookin great so far !!!! dennis

hey ronnie ask eric (porky) at ppvintagekits.com if he cant help you then get with jamie or gary. i would post this in the trucks section cause you might find one that somebody has layin around. i was lucky to see this thread on the side as i was rolling down the forums page. hope this helps good luck and have fun on the biuld dennis

chris i would do like kevin says, send them an email and hopefully they will send you one. as far as the IH 4300 kit it is a very nice kit to biuld but there is an issue with th efront axle fitting properly, you ned to prefit the cab and hood before you set the axle that way you can line it up where it needs to be. have fun with this kit , it is a nice truck to biuld. dennis

its lookin real good so far, cant wait till its done

you have put alot of detaial into this truck , and let me tell you my freind it is looking great!!

i got a set of old white tanks im thinkin about using, i think they would fill the lil gap and look more like the ones in the picture. if they dont work out then its hello pvc lol

here is an update, i got the motor trimmed up and painted hit, the frame is all complete and primed for paint, i got primer on the cab and ready for a lil body work also made the "old school" exhaust rack. i also started the reefer , i will post some pics of it later after i get some primer on .

that front end is looking great, very nice detail!!!

looks nice so far, good luck with surgeory i hope you have a speedy recovery dennis

dave everytime you leave a post about this truck my craving for one grows stronger!!!! lol we gonn abe fightin over them in the isles at the local hobby shops
