My son is 9 and this was his first model. He loved putting it together. The instructions were easy for him to follow and the parts all had numbers. He put it together in 2 days. I highly recommend it!

I got this model for Christmas. I painted it saphire blue with a black chassis(as all peterbilts have a black chassis.). There is 1 thing i notice after i finished it, the right smoke stack was an eighth of an inch lover than the left stack. so i took off the right stack and drilled some holes to make it the right height. there is 1 more thing about it you have to re-chrome parts of the stacks because the way they are molded leaves white marks when you go to smoth the stacks out. Otherwise this kit gets a 9/10 for realistickness.

its been a couple of years since i put a model together so i started looking for a model to put together on my day off of work and came across the 1/25 peterbilt. the model is fun to put together and looks cool when its all done. i decided to paint the truck differant from what the instructions say and only took me one day to put together.
