TruckerAL Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Finished this one up a few weeks ago. Started out as the 75th anniversary WF kit. Made the paint scheme up myself, scratchbuilt the mudflaps/hangers, exhaust, and scratchbuilt the updated steps. I even extended the rear hubs since they sat too far in the rim. Simple but looks great! 2
Jim B Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Very nice looking White-Freightliner. I like the changes. 1
Bills72sj Posted September 28, 2021 Posted September 28, 2021 SA-WEET!!!! Thanks for sharing. I built 2 last year from the same 75th anniversary kit. 1
Bronzekeg Posted September 28, 2021 Posted September 28, 2021 looks great, tough kit to make look right. 1

These freightliner kits are a challenge to assemble, but once you fix the few flaws it has, it's a relatively easy kit. I love them! Thanks for the comments everyone!
kilrathy10 Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 Man... This is a beautiful build... I love it... Excellent work on the steps... Man, that looks good... I like the windows in the back of the sleeper, too... That looks really cool... And it always helps to have antennas like those... A statement piece, for sure... 1
leafsprings Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 You got this one sitting pretty! Like the way the front wheels sit correctly inside the fenders, not outside the fenders. 1
TruckerAL Posted October 2, 2021 Author Posted October 2, 2021 Thanks everyone? Yes I agree, shortening the front axle, and moving it forward slightly really Makes a big difference
TruckerAL Posted October 5, 2021 Author Posted October 5, 2021 I was not expecting this many compliments on this build. I appreciate it so so much! 1

gatorincebu Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 Alex, Very nicely done ! I like the new cab step. And your original pain t scheme is nice . Be Well Gator 1
doorsovdoon Posted November 2, 2021 Posted November 2, 2021 Very nice work. Good job on the paint scheme. I've been eyeing one of these Freightliner kits for a while. Seeing this I think I've just added another big rig to my stash! 1
