Thanks Martin passing this stuff along is what I live for I am more than willing to pass along anything I have learned to help others interested. I was the driver evaluator and part time instructor and air brake guy where I worked. It was very enjoyable and lots of fun. Part of the job I enjoyed immensely.

Cute indeed Jeff , but not only you, the truck as well. I love the detailing and the right amount of patina. Your WIP is great, because of the background information. I´m not into trucks, so it´s interesting to hear a bit about these work horses from a former user.

Cheers Rob

You pulled off a superior build my friend. And you should post the Peterbilt 378 your working on to.

Thanks, Rob, I am always more than willing to pass on what I have learned over the years, and also as a side bar, it may give a little idea of what goes on with operating a large truck, and when one is out driving their small car, and give an understanding of whats going on, and why they do what they do....
