The weather bahaved its self long enough for me to get a coat of black on the frame for the 388 so wile it dries I got this out. Beetlebilt gave me a bunch of AMT 359 parts about a year ago and I started messing with them and this is what I have so far The frame is scratch built The fenders are from a Revell snap kit as well as the luberfiner bracket and the air cleaner that you cant see. Im not sure what this will be but right now Im thinking it might be a late 70 early 80 mule train but thats subject to change lol!!! Mark Attachments:

After I get all the other projects done I might shake up that peterbilt junk yard of mine and see what I can come up with. This is going to be another mule train is it? Them buggers are getting addictive here lately, LOL.
About time they got some recognition though. Will be watching this.

Mark,
Aside from declaring your workbench a bio-hazard site. You got a good start on another good looking model.
You need a first aid kit near your bench!!
be Well
