January In Progress 2010
Here is a work in progress, it is the Revell 359
kit with only slight modification, I have a set of straight pipes in the works
and maybe some heavy haul gear. Paul Crocitto
Here is the reissued freightliner dual drive in progress, it is painted honda
hamstead green as it is the closest color I have found to strescon green that
can be bought in a spray can. During last months update someone built a midland
based rig, the color is very much the same as they are all owned by the same
family in new brunswick, namely the Irving family. The other green cab is
the IH S-line 2500 which is next to be built and it will be a replica of the rig
I learned to drive in. The cabover is loosley based on a 1990 model cabover they
had. Also in the pics is an Italeri Pete 378 and an AMT autocar just
waiting on some badging and other small things. Ken Hatfield
This is a built up that I received. I saw one in
the wheels of time that I thought looked very sharp. This one came with a
torsion bar suspension. This is the first time I have ever saw this on a K100.

Revell USA Snap Pete 359. Modifications include the
interior, the hood and grill, as well as the front and rear suspensions. The
engine is the Silver 92 from AMT's Kenworth K100 Aerodyne kit. The hood has been
modified for a single air cleaner mounted to the driver's side.

Since I was raised up being around produce and
being hauler as well this was long time build. The truck is a ebay rebuild, it's
one of the old AMT with Corner doors, extra parts are double hump fenders from
Bobby and resin brakes from MO or Jamie? since the photos head lights and cab
lights have been added. Trailer it too is a ebay save I had to replace the 2
sides with flat stock. Hinged the driver side and added a table with box's made
from wood stock and added a coke machine. Thermoking is from flat sheet stock
with KFS door locks. I would call it done but still needs decal work.
