I was anxious to get this beauty finished, so I rushed some of the details before letting them dry completely. However, I think it turned out really well. Surprisingly, this is my first Pete 389 that I have painted, and one of the latest models I have designed to date. This custom version includes the stretched frame, rear fenders, and custom taillight bar with shorty mud flaps.
The paint is Rustoleum from a spray can which seem to give me great results on these trucks, and very easy to use without a lot of clean up. I included a photo of the Peterbilt 386, 379, and 389 side by side to illustrate the subtle differences in these models.
Lastly, I am still perfecting my 53' reefer design, but thought I would include a teaser at the bottom of the page here.
I like the rear fenders and the paint job, they remind me of several trucking companies from around the Midwest. Very cool work.
