Pictures of Peterbilt 352 cab hinge assembly

[55pete351]

I have built several of the AMT Peterbilt 352's and have been disappointed with the cab hinge assembly. Using brass and Plastruct I have tried different ideas but they look bulky and over scale.  I have found photos of the front spring hanger, bumper brackets, and front crossmember but no luck on the actual hinges. I am hoping to get some pictures to try to create something more realistic to the real truck. Any help would be greatly appreciated !!

Thank you Clayton! I appreciate it! There are not a lot of these trucks around anymore to look at like there used to be.

Here is a view from the front that you can zoom in on to get an idea.

Thanks again Clayton, I sure appreciate it !

DRIPTRIOT71, Thanks for that photo it is the clearest one I have been able to view!! LOL!  You wouldn't by chance have an under cab side view of how the mount goes on to the spring perch/rail??

I PM'd you a few pictures. This is what I believe the other side of the bracket to look like. These are the best I have. I often use some "creative license" under cabs and hoods.
