monogram aerodyne conventional 80s kit

[ERIK88]

I have a monogram Aerodyne conventional snap kit from the 1980s , it was part of a collection i bought. I had initially put this up for trade, however due to no replies. i decided to build it! It was a really great kit, the rig was painted createx pearl blue, followed by a nice smooth clearcoat.  The hardest part of this kit was placing the decals on the side of the body. Nonetheless. it was a fun, and exciting build! I ended up buying a few more trucks since then!. I will prob strip all the chrome on my next trucks, and spray alclad.

Thanks guy so! I'm glad you guys liked it. I want to learn how to make a custom truck with oversized stacks, stretched frame, cool fenders, and huge front bumper. This is one of more to come!

Nice job on the W900.  I like these little snap kits.  Too bad the wheels & tires are so bad.

Nice work on this little guy, Man....I remember this one when I was just a kid....I used to love building and playing with these old Monograms....These were my first truck kits.....Loved them....Built them right out of the box with no paint and had a ball, afterwards.....Nice work....

Thanks for the comments, Jane your right Jim b the tires could be better. They are only plastic, however they look pretty realistic from a distance. They could have been better if they were individual rubber tires. I still like these kits. Glad to had brought back some memories kilrathy ?
