Morten Eckhoff built this Safeway Stores Freightliner tractor-trailer. Morten says he had been planning this model for about a year, looking at photos on Hank Suderman's "Hank's Truck Pictures" web site. The tractor is pulling an older Athearn 40' trailer. Decals were made from paper and paint. The tractor and trailer are both from Athearn. Morten shortened the cab to a "medium" (63") non-sleeper cab on a shortened chassis, with A-Line wheels, rear mudflaps from Herpa, and Wiking mirrors.
