Dodge Bighorn "Shortnose"


Recommended Posts

This is a Fonters resin Dodge Bighorn and the Diamon RIO for the donor. My plans are to build like 1 of the 2 that Chrysler built before pulling out of the class 8 rigs back in the mid 70's. The Shortnose never made it production. I'm going with a 134" wheel base and a blue and black paint. Here's what I'm starting with.

Started some work on the frame and going through my parts boxes for some fuel tanks. I couldn't find a Detroit diesel so I picked up the AMT Pete at HL today with some Christmas money. I've cut the frame and have a mock up of how short the wheel base is going to be. It measures out to scale 140". I'm going by a couple old pictures.
