Great start, but if you want to be totally accurate you should go for the right model

If you want to do the FLAG semi you want to find the rare 1982 GMC General model by AMT, which was a rather large 1:25 scale model.

Well,
Now that I sold my replica, I have the time and money to get back on these projects!

Please do share photos of your model projects, 1/8 Semi must be quite big and cool truck

Project photos tend to inspire others to continue building their own modelkits, like me for instance.
I have Aoshima 1/24 4th season KITT model built to the point where the floorboad is standing on the wheels, scanner electronics are installed, interior parts are painted but not detailed nor installed. This project has been standing still for a while now.
Managed to continue my other project, namely Revell-Monogram '91 Pontiac Firebird Formula in 1/24 to the point I have finished the floorboard and next I should paint the interior, seats, dash and some other parts before completing the interior. I want to finish this to get some practise of my skills before continuing KITT.
