Default First Tractor Truck Build - Peterbilt Daycab

Hello all, I have been inspired by many of your trucks and have finally cracked open my Tamiya King hauler kit to build a truck. It has been sitting for the past year and have finally found a truck I want to replicate. It is nothing special but will be very suitable for hauling a dump trailer and lowboy for my future excavator.

This is the prototype truck:



This is my progress thus far. It isn't much, but it's a start. What glue do you guys recommend for fastening pieces to Tamiya hard bodies?









Dan

hahaha! Yeah I collect HO and G scale trains and I put some track down every once in a while to run a few. I don't have a layout or anything... yet. You into model railroading as well? I collect mainly stuff that is prototypical to the Delaware & Hudson RR.
