Peterbilt 378 Truck Tractor & 53' Refrigerated Trailer - By James Biela


James Biela used a unique batch of parts to build this Peterbilt 378 truck tractor. James used an Athearn Kenworth cab mated to a Herpa hood trimmed and sanded to fit. He extended a Herpa chassis, lengthened 6' and added a sleeper and wing from the scrap box. James scratchbuilt the sun visor, guide bars, bumper, and custom frame covers.
Custom painted and decaled and mated to a Trucks N' Stuff 53' trailer with resin Thermo-King reefer unit. Wheels and fuel tanks are from A-Line.
