DR JAY Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 The last Big Truck build I did was as a 12-13 year old kid. It was a Mack cabover with Ryder decals. I recall it coming with both a red light sprue as well as an amber sprue for the cab clearance lights. Both sprues, as I recall, had multiple choices for lenses as well as two beacon lights. I was wondering if Big Truck kits still came with the amber lamp tree and if that tree still came with the amber beacons. I am building a 1957 Chevrolet NAPCO 4x4 (Not topic friendly for this particular section of the forum, I know...) as a gas station service call truck and am looking for a source for the amber beacons. I believe the Mack cabover has been re released and there might be someone who frequents this section who can tell me if the amber sprues survived the re release and are still out there.
chunkypeanutbutter Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 The AMT Ford C600 Pepsi truck has red and amber sprues.
Petetrucker07 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 The Mack cabover hasn't been reissued, the DM600 Mack has. Most AMT truck kits come with the clear red and amber sprues. The California Hauler Pete doesn't have the amber sprue.
DR JAY Posted December 21, 2015 Author Posted December 21, 2015 Cool--thanks for the info. I need another Ford for a different project, so it looks like I can score the amber beacons as well!
