Can someone please tell me how long the fuel tanks are on the AMT White Freightliner COE? I'm assuming the DD and SD use the same tanks. Thanks!

The ones I am using on my Dodge are out of the Dual Drive kit. They are 1 5/8 inches long assembled.

Perfect, thanks Brian! Guess I'll have to relieve Hobby Lobby of one of their Freightliner kits this weekend.:D

I have used PVC with flat sheet for ends. Also pill bottles. There O,D will be a tad larger or smaller depending on the size you are looking for. With a little work they can look better than the kit tanks at times.

I've used all sorts of things for tanks (and other parts) over the years. I think the weirdest thing I used was for a 1/8-scale Corvette Grand Sport...I used plastic parts from hummingbird feeders I saw in Walmart to replicate the quarter panel vents! Lol!

What I'm working on right now is just a small build so the kit tanks will suffice.:)
