Im getting to a finishing soon stage for my daycab single drive build and would like a little extra detail..... Anyone? Bueller?...lol Thanks, Gray
Jim B Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Check with The Model Maker Shop. He has them listed in the "Additional Parts" section. They're made by Czech Truck Modell.
69A-CAR Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 That is where I bought mine, it is an awesome detail kit! Really look forward to using it soon. Mark
Ben Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 I'm not familiar with any from the Model Maker Shop? Harald Weber in Germany made a very nice, very complete set specifically for the AMT White Freightliner kits. It is very advanced and requires soldering on the grill, side steps and some other items. I have pics of the photo etch frets on my Fotki site. http://www.public.fotki.com/lotso
SpreadAxle Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) I have Harald Weber's set. For a few extra dollars, he did the soldering for me. Here's the grille from that set. The other set mentioned above by Czech truck Modell is very nice and has A LOT of goodies, including 2 grilles. One is like this one, and the other is the later 2 bar grille introduced in the mid-70s. If you have more than one Freightliner kit, you'll want more of this set after you get the first one.

Hessel Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 In fact the etch is developed and produced in the Czech Republic by a friend of ours Jan Rosecky. His stuff is really good and accurate. He has etch for the Lonestar/Prostar as well. Check out his website. Scroll a bit and you will find English language. http://www.liaznavzdy.cz/nedtrans/ctm.php Hessel
Pavel A. Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Hi. I' ve also this PE parts. It is awesome. But I bought it direct from CTM. I can tell that the souls of this company are Karel (specialist for U.S. trucks) and Jan (specialist for Euro Trucks). I used PE from them on my GMC Astro 95 (conversion of chevy titan). You can see it in gallery. I'll planned also GMC but with big grille, this is also from them. I've also White freightliner parts, W900 parts, Lonestar parts, such as accesories parts. New are PE parts for Iveco Stralis (maybe the best work from guys) and of course new Prostar. Such as preparing of some new parts for W900....
