Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

IML Freightliner FL8664 & 48' Trailer - By David Faust


This is an Athearn tractor that David Faust removed the factory installed airshield and replaced it with an Alloy Forms version that was more correct for the era. He also put the cab on a frame with a shortened wheelbase. As Dave says, "It makes a world of difference on these trucks!" The trailer is a stock Athearn 48 footer.
