Yet another incredible build! There are people with big talent (and patience...) here. Very nice, this is going to be some high quality replica. A 379-127 hood, a Cummins Signature engine, custom exhaust system, a very cool custom scratch built dump box... Excellent detailing.You actually had the guts to paint the fuel tank! Hats off to you. I know that the tanks and wheels come from MCA but the tires, especially the rear ones??? Another thing, what did you do with the wheel hubs, did you machine them off? Please do tell! Another benchmark.

Robert.....thank you for the great comments/feedback

When ordering from MCA/Michael...just specify you do not want the hubs installed...the hubs shown are resin...and modified to fit the aluminum rims perfectly. The tires are from the MODELMAKERSHOP....reason for the "stall" is of course time...but I have a new airbrush system going in place to finish this....Kurt
