This Pilot Flying J Freightliner Cascadia truck tractor and 45 ' fuel tanker trailer was built by Bev Fitzpatrick. Originally a Love's Truck Stop model from Tonkin/Trucks N' Stuff, Bev masked and spray painted the truck rebuilt as a short nose Freightliner Cascadia. All the lettering on the rear was applied one at a time from a Microscale decal sheet. One of the interesting challenges was applying the film with the lettering for the "Pilot Flying J" logo. It was clear on the film because they cannot print white so Bev had to put a white decal behind it before he could apply to the painted trailer.
