JerseeJerry55 Posted August 6, 2019 Author Posted August 6, 2019 Morning all hope everyone's well. More done last night. Not a ton but just enough to make me happy. As Hannibal said many times on the A Team. "I love it when a plan comes together".
JerseeJerry55 Posted August 6, 2019 Author Posted August 6, 2019 Thanks Kerry. This has been a fun build. I also have an Italeri Freightliner FLC120 I will be doing. A little apprehensiveness on doing the multi piece cab. Looks a bit challenging and the attempt may be a bit above my pay grade. But I will try my level best.
JerseeJerry55 Posted August 7, 2019 Author Posted August 7, 2019 Good morning group hope everyone's well. Just puttered around with more decals last night. Trying to make it more "owner operatorish". Its getting there.

I never quite understood why not completely do the mirrors completely molded. Then again I never understood why AMT never did the Ford WT9000, or why Round 2 hasn't released the LNT 9000 again. They have a ton of box truck styles.

Right, would be easier than 6 parts to build a mirror and mounts...

JerseeJerry55 Posted January 13, 2020 Author Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) So back to this one after a few months and a broken front axle I’m back to working on the final touches. Changed the front visor color to Aluminum. Edited January 13, 2020 by JerseeJerry55
