Well the weather becoming cold and snowing here, so I can get some bench time this week. Added some more color to the hood (too much white). Still working out the fuel tanks and roughing out a new visor.
Going day cab with headache rack to go with my fleet,,,,,,,when I get back to it. With warmer weather we are getting our garden planted under hot hoop houses and I am heading down south to see my kids/grandkids😜😉😁
It’s the engine that came in the kit with a single turbo, pretty standard fare in the Ertl/AMT International kits. A lot of the parts don’t fit well, got to adjust a lot
That's gonna be nice. The painted tanks will definitely be an upgrade. Engine and trans look great.
But what kind of engine is that? Looks like it has a turbo propelled by both banks of cylinders -- is it like an 8V-92 or something? (Duh --not the world's biggest Detroit expert)

Decided I didn’t like the fuel tanks I was building so I dechromed them, glued them, filled a the seams and sink and sanded the straps off. Will rebuild from here. Got the last coat of paint on cab, second color applied to hood and painted a bunch of miscellaneous parts.
