Very realistic, much more with outside pics !! ??

Awesome!

Do you happen to have any pictures of the underside of the truck?  I'd like to see how you installed and detailed the front drive axle and transfer case.  Did you have to raise the rear suspension to level out the truck after installing the front drive axle?

This truck is perfect.  The stance and combination of parts couldn't be better.

That’s one mean looking truck. Great weathering and detail. Nice choice in aftermarket tires.

[Warren D]

Great job, one of the best weathering jobs I've seen yet!

[Bills72sj]

Beautiful work on the detailing and weathering. if I was to make a suggestion, it would be to chew up the tops of the upper wood pieces. We all know how front loaders bash them up.

[Tankman]

Thanks Bill ! did chew them somewhat I put a piece of real wood up there just for the wear and tear.

Thanks for checking me out and the suggestion.
