gotnitro? Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Looks great Tom ! Bet your glad to have it finished up since 14 Now where ya gonna find room in the case for that ...hmmm
DrKerry Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Better late than never Tom!!!!! Looks fantastic!!!!!!!
Warren D Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Well done, I remember seeing them all over the area. There is a set that has done a few truck shows in the area but the cab is white.
rsxse240 Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 That is GORGEOUS! I freaking love it! Some reason the Freight launcher day cabs are required, in my eyes, to be painted green. Maybe because that's what Burlington Northern and CF used and they are both close to where I grew up.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 That is one sharp looking rig!! Excellent work on every part!!! The green trucks do look better than the white! I wanted to build one of these years ago in the days before the world wide web. A CF driver that I knew was going to get me some reference pictures since they had quit using cabovers at that time. Years went by he retired, and I never saw any pictures.
disabled modeler Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Awesome work Tom..! I built that set as a kid once...been itching to do them again sometime. One of my childhood friends dad drove those.
jacobus Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 like these double,s and sd freightliner great and nice to see [ now i can do mine , how its lookin if..... i get started ... ] jacobus
WolfmanJedd Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Very clean and detailed. Nice work! Your other trucks are awesome as well!
tbill Posted January 10, 2018 Author Posted January 10, 2018 thanks all. never thought this build would sit around so long unfinished, glad i finally got it out of the box and done.
Renegade Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Great looking rig. Hey AMT, how about a reissue of those trailers.
youngtiger1 Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Pretty clean work and the end result is super.
PettyKW43 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Nice build ! Displaying them doubles is definitely the most difficult part , I’m doing a Kenworth Road Train (4trailers deep) and I’m trying to figure out how I will display it ! 8 foot display cases are not too common .
Rick315-8 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Very nicely done !....super looking combo !....the two defroster fans date the old Freighliner so well....
stenfalk Posted July 29, 2020 Posted July 29, 2020 This is how you bring old times to life. A great model!
