Jersee Jerry55 Posted November 10, 2021 Hello all and hope everyone’s well. On the Winter workbench will be another Revell USA Peterbilt 359. Always seem to pick one of these up from time to time. As you can see the second picture is the inspiration for my frame. Cab color is up in the air currently. The only thing I’ve done so far is removal of the sleeper ladder steps as I believe they were an option back in the 1980’s. Usually I am one to fret over making the model perfect. Which it generally doesn’t. However not this time as how it comes out is how it comes out. Will be adding the front visor from this website’s parts store. Will post as I go along.

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted November 10, 2021 Are you using the Revell of Germany frame on this one or is that just for inspiration? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vincen47 Posted November 25, 2021 Yeah, it may have put links in the post instead of attaching the photos? I’m not sure why either, your other photos are fine. I’ve used the paper clip “click to choose files” then used photo library to select what I want to post. I’ve never had an issue, but sometimes tech doesn’t always work.

Dust must have gotten in the process. However since its gonna sit on a shelf, and not be entered in any contest I'm okay with it. Besides since when has a project that has emerged from Fowler's House of Paint not had an issue of any kind? The streak continues. Happy Thanksgiving.
