Finally, the truck will be 1:16 scale, I have a picture of the aluminum wheels... from  michael.cherry2@ntlworld.com

that guy is an artist, you got to pay but it's worth the money...

(just to show how those wheels are big, the front steer axle in the picture is 1:24 scale axle)

I am going to enjoy this build, a while ago I scratch built a jet dragster. I back-halved a Garlits TF kit and scratch built the engine. I used many plastic plumbing fittings and markers for the exhaust and main body of the engine.

WOW your dragster look killer... if you finish it, let me know, I want to see that.

Your engine look very good...

the engine is not the same that the one I will do but it's just to show how a jet engine can look good with chrome and alclad paint...
