1/24 Scale Western Star 4964 Truck Tractor

This AMT model kit reproduces the Western Star 4964 truck tractor in 1/24 scale. It contains 285 detailed parts moulded primarily in white. The kit is rated Skill 3 and is intended for adult hobbyists and collectors who enjoy building complex replicas.

Suited for experienced builders seeking authentic

The kit demands paint and cement, which are not included, so it is not for anyone wanting a ready-made display piece. Builders who prefer snap-fit assembly or lack modelling tools should look at simpler subjects. The complexity also makes it unsuitable for younger users.

Functional features enhance realism

A steerable front axle and functional fifth wheel allow the finished model to be posed realistically. Chrome-plated exhaust stacks, quarter fenders, fuel tanks and side mirrors plus 10-hole aluminium-style wheels add visual accuracy. Ten soft hollow thermoplastic rubber tires provide authentic texture.

Questions about this item

What glue and paint do I need to finish the 285 parts in this AMT Western Star 4964 kit?

The kit requires model cement and paint, which are not included. Use plastic model glue for the white-molded parts and choose your own colours for the cab, chassis and NTC-400 turbocharged Cummins-diesel engine.

Can I display the finished 1/24 scale truck tractor alongside my 1/24 scale die-cast trucks without it looking out of place?

Yes. The model is built to 1/24 scale with true-to-scale detail, steerable front axle, functional fifth wheel, 10-hole aluminum style wheels and chrome plated quarter fenders, fuel tanks and side mirrors that match the proportions of other 1/24 vehicles.

How can I confirm the steerable front axle and functional fifth wheel move freely after assembly?

Gently turn the front wheels — they should pivot on the steerable axle. Then connect a compatible trailer to the fifth wheel; the plate should tilt and rotate as the truck articulation changes.
