Leonidas Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Great looking truck. Keep that one in the fleet. They go for crazy money on ebay, built or not.
Plastheniker Posted August 9, 2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Jacobus, I think the yellowing of the glass parts is caused by UV light. I had this problem with models near windows exposed to bright daylight or even sunlight. Now I always protect my models by using my venetian blinds because the yellowing is irreversible .
Pete68 Posted August 10, 2016 Posted August 10, 2016 Nice looking truck been cleaning my old ones up too. I have a 4200 I will be posting next I've had for 30 plus years and my glass turned yellow just like yours but my headlights are ok I like your stripe job
