Have fun.  You might want to take a good look at the fuel tanks, especially if you are doing a first unit truck.  Tanks as provided are too long, I ended up making my own from scratch.  The decals also have a flaw, the ones for the cab doors aren't the same, one is missing a section of logo.  I changed up the cab air deflector mounting to make it closer to the movie truck.

Thanks Warren. I did notice the tanks and their size. I think I have a set of smaller resin tanks I might use. Thanks for the heads up on the decals. Hadn’t noticed that. It should be a fun build regardless.

I think it looks great, too!

Movie rig wasn't a showpiece, so the model doesn't have to be perfect.
