Western Star Trucks Sales, Inc., commonly designated Western Star, is an American truck manufacturer headquartered in Portland, Oregon, United States, and a subsidiary of Daimler Trucks North America, in turn a wholly owned subsidiary of the German Daimler AG.
In 1967 White Motor Company started the Western Star division as White Western Star with a new plant at Kelowna, British Columbia, sharing headquarters with White in Cleveland, Ohio. It was not included in the 1980 sale of White to Volvo, instead being sold to Bow Valley Resources and Nova Corporation, each owning 50%.[1][2]In 1991, Western Star Trucks was purchased by the owners of the Western Star Australian subsidiary, Terry Peabody and Bob Shand.[1] In 1996, ERF was purchased.[3][4] It was sold in 2000 to MAN.[5]In 2000, Western Star was purchased by DaimlerChrysler, becoming part of the Freightliner Trucks division.[6][7]In 2002, Western Star production was moved to a plant in Portland, Oregon.[8] 4700, 4800, 4900 and 6900 model trucks are still manufactured in the Portland Truck Plant. In May 2015, the Daimler Trucks North America plant in Cleveland, North Carolina, began to build 4700 and 4900 models, as well as assemble all new semi tractor 5700XE models.
Western Star produces a range of Class 8 commercial vehicles for both highway and off-road use. Western Star specializes in trucks tailored to customer specifications. Every Western Star offers several sleeper box sizes, with chassis lengths of up to 486 inches depending on model. Five interior packages are available and sleepers can be trimmed to specifications. Engines, transmissions, axles, suspensions and brakes are available in a number of configurations. Engines used include Cummins and Detroit. Western Star also produces right-hand drive trucks for the Australian, New Zealand and South African markets.Though styled in a conventional fashion and often used in off-road applications, Western Star trucks are also available with anti-lock brakes, traction and stability control, and other modern safety features in order to remain competitive and meet DOT regulations.
Multiple Western Star trucks have been featured in films, including: A Western Star 5700 Phantom Custom is used as the new disguise for Optimus Prime in Transformers: Age of Extinction and Transformers: The Last Knight as well as a Western Star 4900SF tow truck is used as the Decepticon Onslaught in Transformers: The Last Knight. A Western Star 4800 is used as the Happy Toyz (Green Goblin) truck in Maximum Overdrive. A Western Star 4964 is used as the Westway Refrigerated truck in Trucks. A 1989 Western Star 4964 was used as the antagonist vehicle in the 2015 Canadian horror film Wrecker, which is largely a remake of the film Duel.

This was my favorite truck as a kid, from the movie STEEL COWBOY!

[@TheSeattlenews]

love your builds and reviews especially on amt semi trucks. I learn so much from watching. keep them coming!

[@jeffyoung2890]

Hey man, I love these reviews! The builds are cool,
but I really dig it when you do an "open box!" I have
bought kits because of your reviews, and like the fact
that I can see what's inside before buying! Looking forward
to seeing more builds, reviews or whatever... Your videos
ROCK dude! See ya next time....

[@hpiguy]

Just bought this kit today for 40% off at hobby lobby. My first ever semi truck. Insane amount of parts compared to the usual pickup so I’m looking forward to putting it together!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

I'll be anxious to see the finished product...

[@ezridax5809]

Never build a model truck but I do like Coca Cola. And I can't wait for the round 2 Livestream today.

[@tomlappin9657]

Great Big Rig Kit !! Winter build

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@bobrobinson2587]

Great review
Chris. Made me thirsty for a Diet Coke. I have 2 of those kits, not the Coca Cola ones. You can take the driver out of the truck. But you can't take the truck out of the driver.

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@johngligo4049]

Chris, thanks for reviewing this White Western Star Coca Cola edition! Definitely another future kit to grab!

[@andresmsv3294]

Hello how are you? I wanted to know if you can tell me how wide it is (from fender to fender)
I'm making the 3d model to print a 1/14 cabin but I can't find the measurements.
thank you very much

nice looking kit

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

You could build this with or without the sleeper...

[@devinrussell2372]

At Colpar's Hobby Town in Lakewood and Aurora Colorado(I live about 2-4 miles from Colpar's Hobby Town West Wadsworth & Girton) I once found AMT's Peterbilt 359 California hauler kit that normally sells for around $46.00-$47.00 with tax,with a sticker price that said $27.99 plus tax.I was like "damn;now that's a good deal!".The kit was practically a steal;no I don't mean steal as in literally stealing & shop lifting the kit,I meant it as an expression;a figure of speech.I didn't have enough cash with me or I would have bought the kit.Since the frame has quite a bit of space behind the cab,I would also buy Revell's Peterbilt 359 conventional.I would take a hot knife;and carefully cut the coffin sleeper off of the Revell kit,and splice it with the cab of the AMT kit.Kit bashing at it's best.

[@jamesmaroon6161]

Hey Sir. Hope your doing good. Got a question. Or maybe a request I think. Will you do the Beetle Bus this year. Just asking Sir. Luv all of the builds and the put togethers. I think like everyone else I to buy some of the kits. Take care

[@hpiguy]

Nto familiar with it but if they send it over I will!

Nice review Chris

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@Toppervision1]

Aha!, so you're gonna show the black Papa truck. Cool! And I do hope you secretly have the GMC General in your shop because I am eagerly awaiting it's release. Oh yea, cool parts review on this, er... what was it, semi. Totally forgot what I was watching and the phone won't let me scroll up. Ah, to be getting old amidst glue and paint fumes. Sigh...

[@hpiguy]

I didn't say the PaPa truck was getting a build, but I did say it directly relates to today's build. Close. Stay tuned!

[@Toppervision1]

@@hpiguy Aha, I actually get it now. I said the wrong name. :)

[@chassegallerie2910]

Pretty. Is this one one of theirs, or one they rent from Italeri?

[@hpiguy]

This is one from the old days, one of theirs.
Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@Allessio777]

I also like the BUILD part of modeling best...It is the weathering that least appeals to me (seems like I am just ruining the model!!).

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for leaving a nice comment!

[@mariomeza3408]

Wow, sweetness!!

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@Wolfhound327]

Noticed the frame is in 3 pieces. Hope the it was just yours that broke.

[@IamGalvatron]

Paint it black, get an aftermarket sleeper on it and put a Green Goblin head on the front. Maximum Overdrive!!

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@neuromancerXL]

Great, would like to see this one together

[@hpiguy]

Me too, post pics on hpiguys Workshop Facebook page when you get it done!!

[@neuromancerXL]

@@hpiguy lol

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

I look at that kit and think to myself, Man, trucks have come a long way. That sleeper is tiny.

[@hpiguy]

Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!

[@Dartman6]

The cab itself appears to be the same cab as in the Autocar kits.

[@dalekrueger1175]

The Drivers cab was introduced in 1950 by Autocar, in 1953 White motor corporation purchased Autocar

[@johnpendleton4158]

Can you purchous a Coke trailor separatly?

[@hpiguy]

Yes, I reviewed the Coke trailer on this channel.

[@bm_applecor3306]

U need to build this one

[@hpiguy]

I think you need to build it, it looks awesome!

[@earnierosenow9834]

now to source a joker clown face to recreate the truck in maximum overdrive , that would be cool

[@hpiguy]

Yeah!

[@jterry769]
