That will be a great combo.

Cool ! Another one for the fleet.

Looking good ?

Awesome build and we'll deserved. ...and another thanks to Jeff for hosting it.

I am in, just haven't figured out which one.

What he said. ?

I am not familiar with that process, but I do see what looks like a heat gun in the background and if you zoom in closely on the windshield you can see what looks like trimmed material around the windshield frame. I could be wrong of course.

I really enjoy the builds, so count me in.

Stunning build, and your fleet is quite impressive. Looking forward to seeing more of the new fleet, love the colors.

What he said!

Glad to see you back on this one Bill.

Rog, I glued one front spring assembly in place, then drew a center line on the frame down through the center of the axle mount. I then cut the spring loose from the shackles, cut about an 1/8 of an inch out of the shackles and glued the spring assembly back onto the shackles. Rinse and repeat for the other side. Did a similar process on the rear. Not as low as I would like, and not an accurate representation of actually lowering a truck. Just a simple way of achieving the look, and as they say, "baby steps". The engine is now installed. For some reason the camera is not catching the difference in color from the frame, but it is. So no sleeper. I do want it to appear lowered, and that will help.

Fabulous work as always Jeff. The details just keep going...and going.

I absolutely love your car haulers! Vast inspiration in your wips, and stunning results.

Unbelievable.....

Another DR, cool !

Great build ! Love the single axle. Makes me want to build a single axle.

Lots of great AC/DR builds going on right about now. Must be something in the water....or we were all listening to AC/DC.....?

Wow Jeff, you are moving right along. Sorry the box didn't work, but I bet if you leave it on the bench you or the squirrels will come up with some ideas.

I will be following along Bill. Looking forward to seeing your modifications.

Thanks guys ! I had some downtime today and spent it at the bench. I have switched out the kit wheels for these, so it is up on all ten now. The engine is just mocked up. I also did a mockup using the Peterbilt sleeper...and no sleeper.

Just an overall look. Hoping to get a more custom truck when finished. Thanks everyone for the positive comments. It really helps to stay motivated. I thought I had a partial can and full can of the yellow, it turned out to be two partial cans....soooooooo I need to order a couple more cans. That is what happens when I think. Here is the chassis in its coat of yellow. This will be the last update for a few days. Anniversary is this weekend, so as they say, see you on the flip side.

That looks awesome!

Thanks for catching that. Funny how you can miss something like that when it's very late and all you want to do is get it assembled and go to bed. ?

This should be cool! Love custom trucks.
