AMT 40' Great Dane reefer

[Doug 1061]

Calling this one done.  A decent kit but there a few design flaws.  The rear doors, and side door for that matter only open up half way.  It should have an overhead door on it.  Overall it went together without too much fuss except for a bit of warpage on a few pieces.   Reefer unit with opening doors was a bit fiddly.  Ended up with a bit of tiger stripe in the paint but luckily it doesn't stand out that much  indoors.  I goes good with that CO 4070.   Also kind of odd they put the fuel tank on the right side. It seems every one I have seen is always on left side. Same with the hand crank for the landing gear.  Built out of box except for decal sheet from Model truckin.    As always comments/critiques welcome.   Thanks for looking.      Doug.

Nicely done.  Looks really good behind the Transtar.

Nice build on this Big Rig.  I've never built any of these before but man....that looks pretty nice.

Nicely done. I like the Western color and decals.. I wish Great Dane would build the 53ft. model trailers. Mobius does I know. Either way sharp looking unit.
