... pretty much from scratch.

Started with an Aeromax cab that had had the nose cut off. Made a new nose, built up the sleeper, etc. etc.

Made a dashboard, too.

All it needs now is a King Hauler chassis.

Wow, the detail is amazing. Love the rounded corners on the truck. Very realistic.

Nice rig.

Well, she's done. Put a King Hauler chassis under it with a few tweaks (shortened tanks, etc)

Tires from gardentrucking, Easter egg wheels with valve stems

As much of the interior as I could photograph. Full dash, console, Qual-comm, bunk, cabinets and a copy of Juggs magazine (I thought it was about Tamiya MT's but it turns out, no).

Tail light panel and muflaps. The flaps could stand to come out a few mm. Also cut up a Hi-Lift axle housing, as it looks more realistic.

Qual-comm dome made from Wild Willy headlights.

DAMN! That truck is just amazing.

What is the switch on the trailer for?

I noticed a line coming from the trailer, does it have an MFU in it?

Any Video?

Fig, there's no MFU in it. With the interior detail in the sleeper, there's barely room for the receiver and speed control (they're hidden in the fridge and cabinet, battery is under the bunk, permanently mounted). I did make a primitive LED light kit, but the turn signals don't work. There are headlights, taillights, sidemarkers, clearance lights and a reverse light. Also an interior dome light and a work light on the back of the cab.

Switch on the trailer turns on the clearance lights, the connector lights up the tails. My Knight also pulls this trailer,a nd it has the electrical unit set, so the turn signals work when the Knight is pulling it.

There's a separate build thread for the trailer.

No video yet, waiting on weather.

Well, I'll be looking forward to the video.

I keep noticing new things the more I look. Such detail.
