fitting this one together is tricky - between the lifting fenders, the clamshell hood, and the plumbing to connect the intake and exhaust parts to the engine, frame and cab it's going to be a ride
lifting fenders
moving along..
these semi truck tractor projects don't often run smoothly - so many fit issues, parts quality issues, etc that getting a proper build done is almost a miracle.
This product of MPC / Round2 is another example of that.
I have the major components of the build complete, all that's left is to add the little final details - badges, latches, hand rails and mirrors.
It'll likely be finished completely later today or tomorrow
completed
the idea on this build was to recreate a MATS or Mid-Atlantic Truck Show style of restored and polished 'classic' semi tractor truck from the 'old school' - and not a working or worn out example..
Great job I use to drive one of these old Flintstone Macks back in the mid seventies
