Peterbilt 377 Reveal

That background hurts my eyes 😎 but it does provide a good contrast.
How were the extra goodies working out for you? The truck looks great.

Hello Martin,

Thank you!

I did change my background in later projects...

The dashboard was nice but being just 2D painted PE it didn't add a lot on top of the kit decals. The PE set was very nice. The steps, radiator mesh, deck plate and the stacks heat shields looks so much better (to my eyes) over the plastics parts. The stack heat shields were a challenge to bend and mount but I managed to coerce them into place.
Didn't bother to replace the bars on the radiator shroud though. Seems like a lot of work for very little improvement over the plastics ones.

Now I know where to look, those parts do look really good.
