Hello, Welcome back! For those old models Ebay is the only souce I know other than modelexpress.com sells some old kits to. I hope this helped.

thanks but i dont have any of them local and i really dont know the diameter without matching it up.

Hello all, I got the New White Freightliner Kit from round 2 from Model Round Up and the Old Budweiser Pete with Van off of ebay and the new sealed kit from Round 2 and the Van trailer off of ebay was missing the metal axles. So I havent had very good luck. If any one has any i need 4 of them let me know what you would take for them. Thanks.

Hi Jeremy, I usually build the cabs and sleepers then paint that way you have less of a chance of wrecking your paint job with a glue accident. I hope this helps.

Well guys i have had great luck with the genuine cummins beige paint. i have painted several trucks with it and it does not hide any details doesnt appear to be much thicker if any at all. you may have got a bad can that was old has frozen or something. Here is my Super Liner with a Cummins engine painted with it.

You have to watch some reference photos due to in some scenes it was a K100 Kw painted and mocked up like the Cruiseliner. some photos may be inaccurate.here is what i am talking about. http://www.stlouisdu...ens_Trucks.html

Tim, what is your process here? what type of waxes and polishes do you use do you wet sand? this looks great!! i am painting a blck pete now it is ok shiny but it just does not satisfy me. how manty coats of clear do you apply? Thanks Chris

Tim, What is your method of polishing and waxing to get such a smooth shine? what type of polishes and waxes do you use? what is your method this looks great!!

New sun pictures today.

Cool this truck was out of WV also.

Yea I know what you mean I have been wanting to orer a few things aswell but I cant ever get through to order anything.

I didnt see any like it just the winslow style.

They hauled alluminum coils and ingots out of Kaiser Alluminum with the van.Then my dad bought his 74 359 and they all leased to BESL Transfer ever heard of them?

This is a 352 that my father drove. I really like the Peterbilt factory stripes on this truck. I just ordered a Amt 352 with the Amt 40ft Fruehauf van just like in the picture. I was wondering if it would be possible for some one like Jerry to replicate these stripes? I havent seen many 352 cabovers with this scheme. the owner of it was leased to Ace Doran. The owner also had a K100 Kenworth and painted it to match the Pete. Let me know what you think. Thanks

ok thanks

I check out Erics site and all he has is the single round headlights that i could find. Thanks

What kind of wheels are on your tractor? Are the KFS alluminum? Very Very nice rig!!!

Thanks Dave is he a Member on the forum?

Was wondering if anyone may have a set of these Pete 359 double round headlights with lenses in their spare parts box they may want to sell? If so how much? Thanks

I would like to see the AMT Turnpiker PETE. That is a good one.

Verry sharp looking KW!!!

If you have original oem air bags they will have the peterbilt logo on them. my truck did.

Actually it was a old Western Star still would be great to build.

Thank you! It is the Revell Beall Tanker kit.

Looks great it is good to see someone coming out with modern truck kits. The detail is amazing. I hope you all decide to make other US truck kits as well. Thanks for the photos!
