That's pretty cool. Nice job.

Fantastic job!

Nice looking Mack.

Could he have meant a W300 Power Wagon?

That looks great. Very well done.

Nicely done.

That's good news. Will definitely order one.

Never heard of a Dodge W3000, but AITM casts the L1000 COE in a sleeper cab & daycab configuration.

Cab looks good to me.

Nice looking Mack!

I didn't realize he had been banned. I just thought he was up to his usual antics of deleting all of his posts.

Pretty cool tarps & dunnage. Any plans for chains?

Pretty cool. Don't see daycab Cruiseliners all that often.

You might get a smoother ride, but I'm not totally sure. Your turn radius will be about the size of Rhode Island, though. This is a 350" wheelbase Peterbilt 379 that is driven around New York City & New Jersey. I have no idea how he does it!

I'd say your customer will definitely like it. Fantastic job.

Yes, those are the wheels, or pretty darn close to it.

That's interesting. Do yo think that's factory or aftermarket?

I think the ones in Brad's picture are just steel wheels that are different from the kits, but I could be wrong. Supposedly, AITM has a 1914 back date kit for this kit, but it might not be available right now.

It's in Step #3 (thanks, Tom):

Here is a copy from the original instructions showing the single exhaust: When I built mine, I used dual exhausts.

That looks awesome.

Håkan, to get back to your original point, I think one of the main issues of not having a lot of aftermarket parts for older trucks is return on investment. An aftermarket manufacturer spends a lot of time & effort to make a part, and how many people are really going to buy it? I guess that really depends on what it is. Truck modeling is really a small niche of automotive modeling (granted motorcycle modeling is probably smaller), so the market is small. That's probably why you don't see too many large resin manufacturers making 1/24 & 1/25 truck stuff, because the money really isn't there; the money is in 1/35 armor, so that's where they concentrate there efforts. Yes, there are some large manufacturers that make some 1/24 stuff, but not many. Remember what Liza Minnelli & Michael York said in Caberet: "Money makes the world go around".

The aqua looks nice on the Titan.

That looks awesome. Well done.

Here are a couple of photos of actual Peterbilt 352 that I have on my computer. Most are from Hank's Truck Pictures (recently closed), but I took the photo of the Crane 352. Hope these help. The Oneida rig is a 352H with (I believe) a Caterpillar 3408T, the green & white Lyden is a 352E, and the Spector 352 has a Caterpillar 1673.
