Nick Winter Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 if it's the one that is posted here somewhere on these forums i'd stay good and far away from that mess. can't remember where it was posted but someone picked up a Dodge crew cab dually in resin recently and it was horrible. I beleive that one was posted in the "Tractor Trailer Community Build" Dave. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spkgibson Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 That Truck By R&R Is the same quality as the rest of the stuff they have been making for the last 10 years, Very Poor, I don't know what happend to the quality, If you bought one of the kits back then They were DECENT quality, Know even though I live 15 Minutes from his shop, I wont waste my money on anything they make,Plus the guy shafted me on that 70 300 kit I sold him, I was promised one of them, Never got one. I wouldn't buy a hood from those people anymore, Go find 2 78 LRT Dodge stepsides, And make your own, You would get better results, R&R lists them as 79's But I took a closer look,The cab is a 78, With a 79 hood and grill, You guys should see the the 70 Dart Swinger I bought from them 3 years ago, What A peice of junk, No vent windows, No drip rails, and the front of the doorlines are sanded almost completely off, Not to mention the grill is from the 71 Demon, Right bumper, But It will not fit. Make your own, Don't waste you money on one. R&R's stuff is getting worse . No quality control at all, It's quantity, Not quality to them. I would have to rate them up there with frontier resins now, And thats really sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve the ones he has listed on Ebay actually still have the '72-'78 "Bulge" style hoods with the '79 Grille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
