Bige37 Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 This was my weekend project! I used the hairspray method for the weathering though it was hard because I use rattle cans to paint I do not own a airbrush so the paint was removed with rubbing alcohol! The exhaust stack was removed and I made one out of 1/8" aluminum tubing. The mud flaps on the trailer and rig were sanded down and then I used a dremell tool to chip the ends to look worn! All in very pleased with the kit for a snap-tite kit I'm pleased with the detail on the tanker and tractor
Bige37 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Posted November 11, 2014 Thanks for the good words! Yeah I was sceptic all of this kit of any snap tite kit really but with a little doctoring it turned out good I'm thinking of getting the snap tite freight liner next! I have the revel 359 peterbuilt coming in a few days that's gonna go with the texaco tanker bring on winter! Whoo hoo!
Petetrucker07 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Be prepared for a headache with that Texaco tanker. It will try your patience.
Jim B Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Your Mack & trailer look really nice. I agree with Clayton, the AMT tanker will try your patience.
