Nice build of the old DD unit. Ive always liked this rig, but hate the way they did the cab. You did an outstanding job on this build.

I agree the cab was a PITA to get together, the nice thing about pix is you cant see all the flaws! LOL

Great looking Freightliner. I am glad to hear that I am not the only one that had problems with the cab. Dave

Well done Jim,
As said by the others, the cab is a pain.... Sadly, even when the tool was brand new it was a horrible thing to build. and it has not improved with time.
With that, a nice build.

thanks Rick,you are right.but it wouldn't be an AMT kit if there wasn't issues of some kind! I wish R2 would look over and re-issue the Ertl truck kits. now those were nice kits to build!!
and I am REAL GLAD Moebius came out with all new IH kits!! would love to have an 9900 kit! but I am pleased that they did the LoneStar AND ProStar!!
