car lover 1996 Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 This kit started out as the AMT Ford Louisville coca cola delivery truck but I glued the box van part together all wrong and I could not use that. So I was left with the cab and chassis and this is what I made. The frame was also shortened and I made a new shifter. Te extra tractor trailer parts came from other AMT kits.
cowboysevens Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 nice biuld, glad to see another truck saved. dennis
scummy Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 G,DAY , yep that turned out great i like it for a simple conversion you made a unique truck .
SpreadAxle Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 You can use 22 or 30 guage wire. Also, most AMT truck kits come with hollow black vinyl tube. I slide a piece of wire inside of it and then coil it around a paintbrush for the coiled lines, then paint red and blue. Or, you could model the straight lines, too. just don't coil them.
mackinac359 Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Looks like the ones that used to run around up here. Tim
mackinac359 Posted November 20, 2010 Posted November 20, 2010 The cab lights and horns are in the kit. The builder chose not to install them for the box art. Tim
