Peterbilt 378

By: robby359 (East Bernstadt, Ky)

This is a modified version of the previously released Peterbilt 378. (The box shows a 379) In this issue they have thankfully added the 63 standup sleeper from the 377 kit. It also features a 60 Series Detroit engine, positionable front wheels, and air ride suspension. Although I don't like the multi piece cab this allows the roof to be left removable. This kit lends itself to lots of customizing and scratchbuilding possibilities. For example with the addition of a resin aftermarket hood it can be converted to a 379, 357, etc...
