truck. Chris Schaper
I custom built the C500 with HD suspension and a
driven front axle. I added KFS larger tires to the Alaska hauler. The
Kenworth is box stock except that the mirror broke off.

This is my first model to glue I made. Peterbilt
359 1/25 Revell and Fruehauf trailer dry van TN 1970 (modified in a reefer). I
call this the Bandit Express and is a tribute to the actor and country singer
Jerry Reed. I know the original film had a Kenworth W900 but this is a
montage of film 3 model of the trailer. I added 80 lights, I have almost
300 hours on this truck. Marcel Jr Pontbriand
The truck is basically box stock of the AMT kit
that came out in 2000, the only thing I added were accessories and the decals to
make it like BJ and the Bear. I wasn't trying to get a close look to the
truck from Bj and the Bear, this model was built up as a decked out version to
the truck in the TV series. The only thing that was really added to the kit that
I can think of was the decals and the spot light on the drivers side. Was
built for Lance Cormier by Greg Cormier.
Superliner Tri-axle tractor.

Cab over KW pretty much out of box, added the

snap together kit out of box too with my paint design and striping.
