That is one clean, beautiful build. Just shows that part count doesn't guarantee a good kit. Good engraving, and in this case, clean build, crisp detail painting make all the difference. Great job!

Great build. “Soaking” warped parts in hot, but not boiling, water then clamping the part can help straighten out warps.

I had the same problem with the tires. Also one thing I didn’t like is the tab for the body and sleeper. Have to paint the back of the truck after installation to look better. Great video!

Amt/Revell may have done a good job on the kit, but you brought it home on this one. Great work. I have this same kit with minor differences, an Amt version about 1982. Hardly any of the molds lined up, like a sandwich with one piece of bread hanging way over to one side, lol. Very hard to work with so i just didn't put the effort in i should've. You really put mine to shame on this build, lol. Thanks a Heep for this build! Mr Doug!

@RightOnReplicas2 жыл бұрын
Gurjasplayz, Since it has a standard fifth wheel hitch there's no reason why any Revell 1:25 trailer couldn't be made to work. You may have to manipulate the connection or add the hitch ball yourself if there isn't one already in place. -Doug

Thanks for the review on the revell model truck. With Revell so short on detail and parts not fitting well I can't see paying out $30 bucks for it. AMT makes a much better kit and for around same price. But back in the day when I built model trucks I could get them for about $10 bucks. But that was then.

Hey. I have one of the kits. Do you think that the tire issues you mentioned in this kit can be rectified by replacement tires (amt for instance) or will I need wheels as well? Thanks in advance for you help, Steve
@RightOnReplicas4 жыл бұрын
ST, The Moebius type replacement tires are an improvement. I'm not sure about the wheel opening size though. You might have to adjust it by scraping/sanding them larger or adding tape to the wheel to close the gap! -PS, please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers. -Doug

i had the U.K. version of this model, in 1/25th and 1/18 scale and found it was far superior to U.S. model kit, unlike the one you demonstrate, my wheels were actual rubber tires, and the wheels are put together as you would see on the real wheel set up. also, the Chrome features are far better than on those kits found in the U.S. the items i mention are as standard on all Revell .U.K. /European models.
