JARRNO88 Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 It took me about two years to build but I finally completed it. I used the AMT R685 MACK kit , The wrecker from the AMT 359 wrecker kit . I extended the frame, narrowed the wrecker body a good bit to make it the same width as the rear wheels. I also collected alot of photos and other info off the web and did most of all the plumbing on the engine and chassis. I am now starting to build the 359 from the wrecker kit and the REVELL PETERBUILT 359 snap kit to build A 1980 PETE 359. I am going to try to complete the PETE 359 in less time than it took me to build the wrecker, JARRNO88

Austin T Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I always have loved those old Mack R models, yours looks great.
lazlow Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 That looks great, I love the added broom, shoval and oil drum, They give a real feel.
