Kodiak Island Modeler Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I just finished a nostalgia build on the original AMT Peterbilt wrecker. I opened an original box with the blue wrecker and built straight from the box as I wanted to keep this as close to the spirit of how I would have built it back in the early 70s as I could. This is one of the hardest builds that I've had in a long time; not due to quality or difficulty of the kit, but to keep myself from digressing and building it the way I would now. I'm sure that a repop is going to be coming soon, and I'll let myself go then. For now, this is my trip back to 1972. This is the box it was built from. I sure hope that the next time AMT repops this one that they use this artwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Albion Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Excellent work! I really like the way you photograph your trucks. The image reminds me of the many old truck photo's on Hank's Truck Pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
