Try warming up the hood under running hot water around the area you want adjusted . After satisfied quickly stick under cold water and see if that helps. The cold shock should set the adjustment..but its mostly trial. I've done this a few times w mixed results

Good looking truck !

Awesome work. ! Detailing out the crane will definitely make it pop, and really like the idea of subtle color shifts to create idea the trucks been touched up !!

Thanks Brian ! Working on updating the wing tower behind cab right now . Mine has a pulley inside the tower, where the resin one is on top. Planning to remove the top, cut a space out and stick a pulley more like " fair lead " inside . Thank you !

Very good work ! Your definitely making awesome progress

Thanks ! Mocking up everything frequently really keeps the build exciting for me

Outstanding work, love conversions like these . Really shows what else can be fabricated w our stash of kits ! Definitely see your RR skills building the framework on the RV body Very nice

Yep..didn't matter whether I scrubbed w comet, westleys over night soak, washed w dawn dish soap etc..I sometimes have issues w it . Even spraying mist coats sometimes still had spots that didn't cover . This was their sandable gray primer. I ended up using tamiya fine white for problem areas

Tossed some plastic together to make a fuel tank and its hardware . Chunk of pvc pipe always works good for smooth tanks ! After a few minutes I mocked everything up to check clearance, seemed okay ! The ladder was from the ALF Eagle..worked out perfect for the sander ladder It's really starting to look like the real truck, several small items to chec off the build sheet..then it's off to primer .

Love watching your builds progress, I learn so much

How about a Workstar...

Outstanding results I have this kit in the stash, really should build it

Awesome work Jim

Outstanding work ! I had to chuckle about using 50 bmg for punches , perfect tool for the task Your auger turned out fantastic, actually been head scratching about how to make one for sicard blower...and you've done it ! Keep up the great work

Excellent fabrication! I've really gotta learn how to make 2 part molds, invaluable skill to have

Thanks everyone I appreciate the comments !! I find building trucks like these relaxing , guess using brain problem solving is good for keeping away dementia . I stopped by local DOT today for a few inspiration photos..and this was waiting. Its heavy duty , wearing a plow..and ORANGE what's not to love ..stay tuned

Awesome work!!!

Love your steerable axle ! Wish more kits came with them Keep up the pics , your build looks very good so far

Nice work !!!

Wow , the wheels really protrude from the fenders. Is it possible to use a smaller truck axle under it , something like an Opal or era truck ?

Yeah those orange trucks really stand out !!! Cant wait to see how your builds going Kerry !

Really looking forward to your build, when your used to building under a microscope...your gonna be like holy smokes these parts are enormous !!! Looking at the box art makes me realize how times have changed in this politically correct time now .

Awesome work !!! Those decals might have been a headache , but really set the cab off . This will be another show stopper !!!

Yup that's the email I have too If your on Facebook, Jamie is also on there . He replies to questions promptly

Absolutely love that Maz 537
