Hi Johnny. I got the glad hands off ebay. They actually hook up to the fittings on the trailer, just like the real ones do.

Thanks Bro. I'm happy with the way she turned out

Thanks Bro! She turned out awesome.

This is the IHC 4300 Oilfield truck - I'm working on. The door decals are an actual trucking company located in Nisku, Alberta: Banister Pipelines. I'm going with 6 - spoke wide flotation wheels & tires on the front.

This is my 1977 Kenworth W900 Heavy Haul. I used the AMT Kenworth Alaskan Hauler kit - as the base Tractor. I lengthened the kit frame from 12.25 inches - to 14.25 inches The Rims & Tires are from an AMT Autocar Dump Truck kit The background pic is one of the Refineries located in Fort Mc Murray, Alberta. The Road diorama is Highway 63 - northern Alberta.

Rob Berreth replied to Rob Berreth's topic in Model Truck Workbench
Thanks Johnny. I used 24 gauge wire. I'm still waiting for the glad hands to show up. -
"Big Kat Shipping" decals in place Scratch built Cab Protector Air & Electrical lines in place Just waiting on the fuel tanks, vortex air cleaner & glad hands to show up

Thanks. I'm not really a fan of chrome wheels, or the rectangular headlights. I'm going for the old school retro look.

I just finished working on the Peterbilt 359 frame. I lengthened it to 13 inches

Thanks. It turned pretty good -
So, My next build will be the Revell Peterbilt 359 Kit. I'll be stretching the frame considerably as I'm using 2 Kits - to make 1 Tractor, adding polished aluminum 8" stacks, better rubber (using the Italeri 22.00 x 11.5 tires), adding a set of Fuel Tanks so I'll have 4 fuel tanks as opposed to just 2, Air & Electrical lines, some deck plates, a set of 1950's / 60's Bullet Style Head Lights, a Vortex Air Cleaner, Custom Front & Rear Fenders, Rear Bumper with 6 Tail Lights, Custom Texas Front Bumper & the over all color will be Rustoleum Key Lime. Pics will be posted!
