                        Don't know where this build is headed, just figure I would build the base truck and go from there. This is the AMT Peterbilt 359 kit.  Typical AMT problems to. This is whre I am at so far. Added some fuel lines to the engine and painted the metal stuff with metalizers.  I do have the wheels on it now though.

                        Thanks.  The main problems I refer to are the gaps between some parts and the fit. As well as the over scaleing of smaller stuff like the dip stick.  Of caorse the directions are another subject just in them selves.
