Looking good, Not sure but if you want to get it color matched take the cab to a paint supply store for automotive paints and they have a machine they can then try to determine "Exact/Close enough for Gov't work" color(s) to look for? I wonder what i did with my Cornbinder project? I was doing some custom stuff to it then disappeared b/w moves???

Look forward to seeing what you do with yours, I have that kit somewhere that i built when i was a teenager and later disesembled and waiting to hit the strip tank (Never painted mine, just painted all the silver and red stuff, as well as use the old decals) Look forward to seeing yours, as well as hoping revell reissues this kit for id love to get my hands on one being this was another childhood kit id love to have again -
Here is my "BRING BACK YOUR DEAD BUILD" hosted by the Snake himself, This kit started out as a box kit of a sba 377 with a Series 60 Leaktroit and i started modifying the fenders to a set forward axle instead of the sba, I will be Re-Powering it with a Cat 3406 i had in the parts box from an old Snap pete kit that i swapped out for a Leaktroit from an ALF Fire truck. Here is the kits contents as is- Partially started frame- 3406 Re-Power plant- Fenders have been made out of the kit fenders, but needs the hood built (Why i ordered some sheets of Plastruct), Might also have to find a new bumper for this kit? I think i got the pieces still maybe i can fix this issue of a wrongfully cut bumper??? Axles, I need to find the tie rod for it disappeared somewhere ??? Thanks for watching, Comments/Criticism welcomed!

And it got me to order some Plastruct to actually build out the hood now that the fenders have been built, I started it way back then (Ill have to research all this information when i started and all the info that i had for it Edit: Heres the link finally... -
