Default Mack Granite Cab?

I'm new to the site and new to a semi truck side of the hobby. So please forgive me for all the crazy (dumb) questions. I've been looking at alot of the ECMT show pictures. I keep seeing Mack Granites. Are they Bruder cabs? Are they custom? They look larger then the Wedico models. I drive a Mack Granite tri-axle and would love this to be my next build.

Yes those are Bruder plastic cabs. Some people build them on a King Hauler chassis, PMD sells a kit useing some Wedico parts, the Granite is more to scale with Wedico than Tamiya.

Taking the dimensions from the BRUDER-homepage http://www.bruder.de/de/germany/sort..._sortiment_pi1[artnr]=02815&tx_sortiment_pi1[action]=details it should be about 1/13,5 scale...

Have you looked at Scott (smallhaul's) Granite build? Read the whole thread as the truck gets better looking each post.
