I built this before we moved into the new house. Finally got a chance to take a few pics. Not the greatest light, but I have to get some new poster board. The only add ons are the single headlights, and the stacks. I narrowed the rear platform, as I read someone else did here on the forum. Actually that build got me wanting to do a similar one, using the same colors. I wish I weathered this truck more, and not just the platform. Too shiny IMO.

Beautiful job Tom… painted just like the box art of the original issue back in the day. Great choice. And I narrowed the deck on my kit as well and that 1/4 inch makes all the difference and changes the over all look to much more realistic. Very nice job and your efforts were well worth it. The truck is really well done. I LOVE the hash marks on the rear plate. Perfect job.

Nice clean build, well done! I built one of these about 50 years ago, when the kit still had the Unilite cab. I probably bought a dozen or so since, for use as donors for resin conversion cabs. Nice to see one done well.
