Hello Everybody!

Here's the final photo set for the Peterbilt 359, thanks for your patience.

I almost completely missed these little marker lights on the fenders! I discovered them while I was doing the final cleanup. I applied some BMF and a little transparent amber paint to give them a proper finish.

This kit does have an engine... there it is.

I decided to add a little travelling companion to the bunk area.

Here's a more detailed shot of the connectors I added.

The connector lines attach to the trailer with magnets.

This is the full rig with Revell's Auto Transport Trailer as companion.

And what's the reason that we want to build an auto transport trailer tractor-trailer rig? Why, to load it with model cars, of course!

My traditional Display Case photo is actually a bookcase photo. This is the one place that I have to display this monster safely. I do have plans to dress things up a bit to make a more suitable display area.

As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to share any comments you wish to post.
