Sublime 389
Inspired by the real Sublime owned by Jade Transport of Winnepeg, my version of Sublime started as an Italeri 378, with sleeper from the 377 and a resin roof. The 389 hood is resin from www.stsmodeltrucks.com and the fenders are from GW Trucks. The colors are black and Tamiya metalic lime green.

International Transtar 4300 Eagle
AMT Reissue of the International Transtar 4300 Eagle. My version is a single axle day cab.

I'm building this one for a 1/24th scale truck. The reach has been replaced with solid Evergreen rod and the cab guard has been modified for the bigger 1/24th scale cab.

Peterbilt 386 inspired by a Williams Tank Lines 386 and a 384 with dual back of sleeper exhaust. My 386 has a 48" sleeper cut down from the Italeri 377 kit sleeper, a resin hood and battery box from www.aitruckmodels.com. The rear "wide base" rear tires are the front tires from the Revell of Germany Can-Do Wrecker and a Bill Signs 359.
