Hi Kilrathy,

Thanks for that. However, I'm in Ireland! Shipping is the same as the kit!

Found the Revell glue Pete 359 in the LHS today, 60 euro... ouch! Came home with the AMT/ERTL International 4300 Eagle for 30 Euro.. Not sure I made the right decision though. We have a model club meet there next Saturday so I may take it back and change it for the glue pete or KW (they have both). Although for 60 notes I might as well plump for the Prostar kit. That looks like it's worth 60.

Roy, the 4300 Eagle from amt (former ERTL) is a great kit. While it might not look as spectacular as a Peterbilt 359, it is highly recommended:

I built 2 of them almost 30 years ago - one as a daycab with a shortened frame (sorry, no pics) and the other as a Special Eagle (lengthened frame, big sleeper and special decoration, see below):

In my opinion, former ERTL kits are as clean, precise and easy to build like Tamiya car kits!

Good looking truck and great paint job.
