rctruk Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 You are doing well so far. It will look great with a dump trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatorincebu Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Jacobus, What you've done thus far looks good. I like the daycab filler panel. Looks good. I also agree with you on the gravel trailer. maybe that Euro one but with dual tires.The more I look at that cab. The more I like it. Bit I would like to do it with a butterfly hood and pit fenders. Be Well Gator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purepmd Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Nice save, Jacobus! Over here, a lot of over the road trucks, when they are traded in, or sold by the original owner, get turned into daycabs. A used daycab tractor is worth more than a used road tractor. If the fenders and skirts, over the boxes, were black, your model would look almost exactly like the truck I drove for a sand and gravel company, years ago. Pulled a dark blue, three axle, belly dump with it. Looks awfully familiar. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
