LTL 9000

[Rbray47]

This one is just about done. I've worked off and on for about a year with it. I like day cabs, so I spliced in a rear cab wall from a scrap Amt LN kit. I scratchbuilt the headache rack. Not entirely happy with it, as it has a warp to it and the paint looks funny in person. I also replaced the fifth wheel plate with a Holland from my parts box.

This one is from the Amt boxing of the kit. Final assembly was fussy. Maybe it's Italeri's plastic? I don't know, but glue didn't like it very much.

Beautiful Ford Semi!

Nice! I've got one in my to-do pile, now I'm inspired to move it to the top of this list! Great sleeper-to-daycab conversion, it looks flawless. Great work!

Wowzers!!!! You really nailed it! I noticed on every single one of those, when built up, that the cab was always sitting lower in the back than the front... I think yours is the first one that I saw with the cab perfectly level. Great job, and beautiful truck!

Great looking Ford.  I have one of these in the stash as well, and I think Ford really out did themselves with the design of the LTL.

A handsome truck, well made, good job.

I have always thought that these were one of the best looking trucks of the day. You did an excellent job on this one!

Very nice!

Nice build.  That Ford design has stood up very well and looks great to my eye even today.  Black looks awesome - great work!
