Good morning everyone hope all are safe and healthy. No worries going with a solid fleet cab coloration.

Firstly thank you for your service. Second this is a great idea. I’ll be watching and I will be picking your brain on the buildup as I want to eventually do a C Series cab.

Good evening all hope everyone’s safe and healthy. About 90% done. Looking good I think.

Thanks Kerry. Here’s the frame about 90% done.

Thanks for the tips have a great rest of your day. jerry

Herman hello and thank you. No straight Red freight truck. Next one maybe slightly different two tone cab. I know the issue the last one had and this one as well. I used Rustoleum auto primer and it is rough between the rivets on the roof and some other areas around the cab. Maybe I use a better primer next time but for now it is what it is. Since it’s a fleet truck maybe rougher areas lend themselves to the look I’m trying to get. We shall see.

Cab repainted Rustoleum Red. Hoping for better results.

Cool idea

Interior done.

The build continues. Frame and engine more or less completed. The last bits will be done after cab is finalized and set. So far so good I think.

Cab assembled. Let’s try this again.

Hopefully just need to learn to get my taping down better. Curved and angled patterns I suck at.

Thanks. Got to hope this comes out better.

New cab arrived. So the $64,000. Question is.....what colors and scheme do I go with? Any suggestions will be helpful. Thank you.

Thanks. Repainted it and it will go in the stash. A friend is kind enough to sell me another cab. Do away I go.

Yours looks great. On the next one I may do something like that. Thanks for sharing.

More work on the cab/hood. Roof lights, horn holes drilled. Did the seals around windshield, and rear glass in Black Sharpie. Lettering, emblems, wipers, and door handles done in Silver Sharpie.

Thank you.

Nice job. Just saw this on Facebook thought you’d like the pic.

Vince correct. So after stripping the paint with Easy Off Yellow and using steel wool and green scrub pad to remove the paint and primer and then reprimed the cab for its visit to Earl Scheib’s last night I looked at it this morning and there’s a sort of waviness to the left cab door. When stripping it last night I saw what appeared to be “cratering” in the paint. However I felt the new primer would cover it. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

I am redoing the paint. I am unsatisfied with my effort. Will post new pics as soon as she leaves Earl Scheib’s. BTW you youngsters may not know who or what Earl Scheib’s is.

Very nice
