I didn't get much done tonight I got the engine mounted for the last time the one tank and the 5th wheel mounted started the exhaust paint. I did get my bits mounted where I can get to them. This kit has fought me every step of the way. I don't recommend if your new to the hobby.
Lookin good, Asa!

Just the sequence. It's a pain in the butt. Having to go back to the other side of the instructions to see where your parts are. I can build cars with out instructions. Big rigs I cannot lol
These old AMT kits are like that i guess, i'm doing the White Freightliner DD/SD kit, man it is a pain, lots of sprus, and two sets of instructions, two different frames one for the single drive axle day cab and the other for the sleeper version, the one with the dreaded seam line across the whole cab that attaches the sleeper. the cab.
Yours is looking great.
