Finished this tonight, Mack Superliner daycab on a DCP KW W900L frame (slightly modified) The cab is a TLC kit, headache rack, tanks, deckplate, and toolboxes are DCP, stacks and fenders are TLC. The trailer is DCP with a Haul All spread axle kit and 2 DCP toolboxes. The paint on the cab is ModelMaster metallic black. The silver is ModelMaster alumium, the oarnge on the cab lights are clear oarnge from Testors, the silver on the frame of the trailer and truck is Agco silver. The front axle on the trailer raises and lowers. Trailer raised. Close up of the cab. You can really tell the metallic in this pic. Q's and comments welcome. Sean

Thanks guys!
This will not be my last Superliner! The Superliner is one of my favorite trucks, can nver get anough of them!!!
Warnin tho Jacob, the interior (wich is basically what the cab sits on the frame with) the bottom is no where near flat......I had to place 2 steyrene strips on the bottom and sanded em down to an angle so the cab would be level...was a pain!

sean that R model i did i used a valvo frame and lots of the other parts but the ertl cab didnt have the interior in them and had blacked out windows so i cut the valvo dash down to fit and put the seats and all in it was a pain but well worth it you said this would not be the last superliner you gona do one with a sleeper ??

I was really thinking about doing one with a sleeper and a pot, will probably still do it.
