gautreau Posted February 13, 2013 Author Posted February 13, 2013 Does the truck in your reference pic have a 48" sleeper? Hard to tell for sure from that angle. If so, you'll need to shorten the kit sleeper to match. Found out the truck does have a 48" stand-up bunk.Thanx for catching that.
gautreau Posted February 17, 2013 Author Posted February 17, 2013 I got the bunk sides chopped down. This pic shows the kit bunk side with the now chopped down bunk panel. Here is the bunk mocked-up with the cab from P & P resin. I just need to chop the top down now. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
gautreau Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 I chopped the bunk roof down I just have to glue it back together now.The hood and front fenders are soaking right now so I can start aligning everything and make hood hinges. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
gautreau Posted February 22, 2013 Author Posted February 22, 2013 Got the bunk all assembled. The hood and fenders have been soaked and are ready for paint prep.The cab will be dunked tomorrow. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy

gautreau Posted February 27, 2013 Author Posted February 27, 2013 Made a large amount of progress in the last few days. Got the frame up on all 10's If you notice the frame beside it,that is from a lowrider project I'm build aswell.Just for a size comparison. Got the engine in aswell today. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
MoparWoman Jamie Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Great work your doing, I'll be watching this one myself too. Keep up the great work.
gautreau Posted March 1, 2013 Author Posted March 1, 2013 Small update.I started building some tub fenders out of some old rattle-can lids today. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
gautreau Posted March 1, 2013 Author Posted March 1, 2013 Thanx I appreciate that.I was going to originally use a set of fenders from P & P resin but the person I'm building the truck for didn't like them.
gautreau Posted March 3, 2013 Author Posted March 3, 2013 So I got the hood,cab, and bunk primed and the fenders based. Then I added the lower cab and bunk trim. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
gautreau Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 Thanx I appreciate that.Here is where I am at right now. The cab,hood,and bunk are all based and masked. The front fenders and rear tubs are cleared. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
gautreau Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 So here's what I found when I pulled the tape tonight. I thought I had got the tape to form around the door trim really good but I guess I was wrong.They are easily fixed. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
Johnny1973 Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 The paint looks good just some touch work on it.looking good!
gautreau Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Small update. I built a 14" drop visor and 5" chopped look door pieces. Sorry my foil work isn't the greatest. Here's what I'm up to right now. This is the start of a Herd super road train bumper.I just need to drill the holes for the bars and shape the posts. Thanx for lookin' Jeremy
Bennyg Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Wow! Keep up the good work. Very inspirational. Ben
