Mack Cruiseliner


Recommended Posts

And for a time beeing the last one, a Mack Cruiseliner from Matchbox/AMT. The wheels are a combination of the rims from Dave Natale and the tires from Italeri.

The window part of the kit was unusable, so i make a new one of a blister package from a headphone. Backlights and indicator lights are from CTM (czechtruckmodel). Mirror support is made with 0,6mm silver wire, antennas with 0,4mm steel wire.

The next one on the workbench will be a Kenworth Bullnose from Illini Replica (many thanks to Bob, who has made possible to receive kits from him).

Greetings, Michael

Michael your Mack is very nice . The tanks look very realistic what did you do to them ?

Thank you very much. I used the magic powder from Uschi van der Rosten. Is ist allowed to set the link here?

On next kit i will remove the chrome from all parts and use the powder to get a uniformly look to all chrome parts.
