        This began as a Revell T900 Australian kit.  Swapped the tires to AMT california hauler.

        This is a Monogram 1/25th scale snap tite kit.   For a snap tite, this was a pretty nice kit.  I stretched the frame to 300" wheelbase, scratchbuilt drop visor.  Texas bumper, deck plate, tail light bar, and quarter fenders.  Bare metal foiled bands on the air cleaners and door handles, and sleeper vents.  Hooked to an AMT bullrack with wheels from an AMT Peterbilt kit, extra lights and correctly placed rollup back door, moved to the left side like an actual cow truck!     Jason Saunders

              This is a classic Lindberg 1/25 Dodge L700, this is a stock build except the two side windows open to the back for a 66' model.  This Kenworth W925 is a real puzzle.  Engine coming from an Italeri box, the cab and the modified sleeper coming Revell/Monogram as some accessories on the frame (battery/tool boxes, oil filter etc...), but the base coming off course an AMT W925 (chassis, drive tandem, tankers and hood...etc).       Pascal Monteil
