Is Italeri 3859 Freightliner the right kit for me ??

[Ulf]

I took those pictures on a trip to Costa Rica (from Sweden) with the idea that one day I might build a kit. 
Honestly, the most important thing is to capture the feeling more prioritized than accurate imaging but since I hardly know anything about trucks, I wonder if this is the kit for me.

Of sure a big task, but try makes smarter. Do it.

The Italeri kit is an earlier version of the blue truck but it's as close as you can get.

some differences, but the kit will definitely give you the big American truck feel.  The blue truck is an FLD132 Classic (132" from bumper to the back of cab) with a 60" integral sleeper.  A kit is not available with the 132" cab and integral sleeper. The kt is an earlier FLC120 (120" BBC) with a 40" sleeper box and a corresponding shorter wheelbase.  The difference in the BBC dimension is the length of the hood aft of the front axle.

Thanks for the answers, I will choose to go the emotional track.

The Italeri Freightliner FLD 120 kit has a larger sleeper, it's not integral but larger.
The rest of the kit is a more aero style truck than the one above but you could maybe use the hood from the FLC and do a FLD Classic...I don't know if that works tho'.
