Slowly but Surely - Peterbilt 379 Progress

I had a little time to get the base coat on the frame of the 379 Pete model.  Next step is to chrome the battery boxes, steps, and fuel tank.  It is possible for me to design these as separate components which could be painted individually and then assembled.  I am not sure if that is the direction I am going to go yet.  The air filter cans and the grill/bumper are individual parts and made painting very easy.  The visor was painted using a Sharpie paint pen.

The bottom dump trailers just need axles and DOT striping, which I hope to get to soon.

  1. Excellent work. Just waiting for you to get all your projects finalized for your store so I can order modern trucks and trailers.
