Spend the time to make sure the chassis rails are parallel and square as the part will allow it to be glued up out of square.

I used my own printed decals for the instrument cluster and wood veneer for the passenger side.

As a truck modeller, I think that you did awesome!
AMT were never the best with their instructions/directions? Keep in mind, these were designed for kids? However, you did a superb job on this, and I look forward to seeing more of your builds! Well done mate, that's one for the shelf 100%

Very nice. Reminds me of the tanker truck you did when we were kids. Love to see the trailer attach to this one!

Very nice. If AMT is designed for kids, MPC is made to keep psychiatrists in the green. I believe Steve is referring to the fifth wheel being backwards.

Lmfao Jonathan! And I believe that you are correct. However, busting my chops on Italeri, for all these years, I'll take your AMT, MPC and even Revell, anyday! I probably laughed far too much at that, but it's Sunday night and my team won. Anything goes 🙂

Thanks for the nice comments. ...and oops! Yeah, the fifth wheel is shown backwards, fortunately it is just sitting on the rails, no glue. Still deciding if I want to add the sleeper section.

Personally mate, I wouldn't. It makes a great day cab. The Mercury sleeper has never been a favourite of mine though. You now have to decide what to put behind it? A reefer is the obvious choice, but I don't see no reason why you couldn't use a tanker either? I'd love to see one in the shape of a Coke bottle, but that's taking things to the extreme.

AMT White Western Star - Coca Cola
Was not really impressed with the quality of this kit. There were numerous fit issues, and the instructions did not always make it clear how each piece attached. I also spent time determining which piece the instructions were calling for as the number on the instruction did not match the number on the tree.
