Old Buckaroo Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 That is Super super Nice combo. Thumbs up all the way. How was that trailer decal to work with ? Is it one piece or sections ? This has always been one of my favorite trucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has always been one of my favorite trucks. Thanks all for the kind words. The side decals are in 2 pieces for each side. They are not too bad to work with. Just make sure before they are applied you wet the trailer down good so you can slide them if need be and don't rub them out too hard they will break up. I just patted them as I slid them on. Then 2 good coats of pledge to seal them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impcon Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 That's an awesome build, Alan!! WOW!! What is amazing is that it is a rebuillder! Just goes to show what talent and determination can accomplish! I'd add a lone from the movie too, but there were too many good ones for me to just pickone. It's oneof my all time favorites and I still get goose bumps watching that Kenworth and that Firebird rolling down the highway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
