First-time contributor Jeff Black submitted these photos of his "Mercedes Benz Coal Hauler." He built it right out of the box (no modifications) from a now out of production Kibri HO scale kit. Jeff says although he was born and raised in the U.S., he's always liked the look of the Mercedes Benz cabover truck. His experience with the cabover Benz goes back to the mid 1980s when the local Embassy Dairy in his town used one. Jeff says he saw it nearly every week making deliveries and it always got his attention since was different than the American rigs.
