Peterbilt 359 Conventional

I love this kit (and its sister, the Kenworth W900)! The price is great, the parts fit is excellent, the chrome is great, the instructions are good, and Revell has not gone down that ridiculous more parts is better path. I've already built three of these and three of the Kenworth W900 kits, finishing each one a little different, and bashing them into whatever I choose. Revell's two low-cost big-rig kits (this one and the Kenworth W900) do not have contest-level detail, but they do have satisfying detail, and are so relaxing and non-frustrating to assemble. I've built three of each, I have two more kits of each on hand, and there's no telling how many more of each I'll eventually build. I'm currently finishing one as a stake-side flat-bed instead of a semi-tractor. I also plan to build one as a one-piece tank truck. After that, who knows? Good kits, fun to build, and GREAT values!

I was impressed with the detail of this kit. I've been out of modeling for quite some time and this kit attracted my attention, not only because I love big rigs, but also the value and detail involved. I ended up modifying the kit a little by extending the frame, adding a larger front bumper and visor. I enjoyed the instructions, really easy to follow. I'll be buying several of these kits to try different changes and modifications. I recommend this kit to anyone who loves big rigs and who wants to have a great model when completed. S.A. Lund - WA.

Put this truck together and it looks great! Didn't have to sand the mold lines very much, there is also great detail on this kit. I was very pleased with this product. For the guy that went on his baby rant about this kit.....it's a level 2! Meaning it's going to be easy to put together! And the kit is very mic to scale....you must not get around trucks much....
