WOW!!! Looks very nice!

I streched the chassis too, around 4in... Do you thin its too much? :) I hope to have done the chassis for this week. And after start to do some works on the body.

I built one of these a long time ago. Mine was the wrecker version, but still had the extras like the sleeper. I cut and stretched the frame and added the sleeper in with the wrecker bed. Came out pretty good, for being done 5 years ago, before I learned to airbrush.

I slowly start it, I hope to have more time for it next week, and for sure I'll post some pics. :)

My idea its to build it little different than teh one on the box, I'll add the sleeper and some other thikgs... :) Will see, its a long time that I don't build a truck... :) Actualy one of the first plastic kit I ever build it was a truck... I probably was 10 or 12, build it straight from the box... Without paint nothing... I feel so bad now... And actually, I remember the kit, it was an Iveco "Cowboy", with a lot of chrome parts... And of course, a that time who knews that the super glue ruin all the chrome parts make them white... :( But I had a lot of fun build it... I hope to have fun also with this one! :)

Last Saturday I bought in a Contest-Swap meet, this truck...AMT Peterbilt in 1/25, the box is open, but it is complete and has some spare extra parts like sleeper... all for $20... For me a good price... :)

 

Soon the building progress... :)
