Kevin Shanahan submitted these photos of a Kenworth W900 model he built over 20 years ago. Kevin extensively modified the old Athearn kit by removing the molded on battery boxes, stretching the wheelbase, and adding the following: tail roller, fifth wheel ramps, scratchbuilt winch cage, Alloy Forms winch, A-Line fuel tank, Alloy Forms exhaust stack, "somebody's" clunky metal visor, Alloy Forms spoke wheels, Alloy Forms air cleaners, Sheepscot mirrors, and Alloy Forms quarter fenders. As Kevin says, "Not bad for 20 plus years ago!" The lowboy trailer is from GHQ Models and the dozer is an Overland brass Caterpillar D9.
