Resin cab: Matlack Mack F700 tractor and trailer

My first resin cab build is completed! This is the ultimate kitbash! I used an AMT Mack Cruiseliner chasis and drive train. All Mack top to bottom, thus the Gold Bulldog emblems.

The resin cab had to be hinged and attached to the chasis. Plastic hinge system wouldn’t work as the cab is quite heavy. I used coat hanger wire and a plastruct tube to create the hinge. It worked great!

I used Chad Kennedy’s 3-D printed 2 hole Bud wheels and fellow club member KJ Humphreys custom made tires! They look so authentic! Thanks guys!

The trailer is an AMT Gulf fuel tanker. Matlack truck lines were known as the pipeline on wheels.
Decals are custom made by Modeltruckin.com / Jerry Reeter.

Note: Modeltruckin.com will take their last order on August 31, 2024. Noone knows if the big rig decal company will be purchased by someone else. Buy em now before it’s too late.
