The cab finally found its way onto the chassis, now the part I like almost as much as fabrication...detailing . I kinda screwed up attaching the blower , now I can't plumb the lines without breaking stuff off..maybe next time on an Oshkosh ! This is curbside , so I'll cheat a stack onto cab. Installing the cab really made me want to wrap this up.. I found some acrylic dullcoat at lhs, shooting testors hot lacquer dullcoat over this would be catastrophic. Thanks for everyone's feedback, I appreciate the comments

Following!

Very cool build I really like these Elky conversions

Glad my 442 camino build was helpful! It was a very enjoyable conversion, I had a bunch of help getting the color choice perfect and the body to flow Your doing a gorgeous job on yours too , really enjoying how its coming together Man that engine ...absolutely stellar work ! Adding those linkages and lines really makes it come alive Howd you get the rear end sitting so low ? Mine always has that jacked up look , always wanted it sitting lower in the back..the one annoying area I had

Man all those hoses and wiring really look good Awesome work on the glass , the few resin cabs I've done had really challenged me fitting the glass tightly

Thats sick !

Very cool idea !

Wow thats a sharp looking truck !!! The euro styling has such an interesting flair , very heavy duty appearance

Very nice work

Very tough looking Acar ! Beautiful

Its not too late , welcome aboard ! If people need an extension ill likely just extend the deadline to dec .

Impressive work wow ! Every update is a major component

I puttered with the RM last night awhile , shot some rust brown along the auger discs and around the bank head, there's more to come .they seem to repaint these frequently, so heavy wear wasn't noted . I added a few rock chips inside w a piece of fine wire making paint dots The red areas were just spots the paints rubbed off to exposed primer underneath where most of the action happens

Fantastic autocar. !

Gorgeous build !!

Very nice ive been following the progress on fb too Really like the red bumper/ grill guard treatment

Nice work getting the roof flattened out ! Checked w my step dad , swore he had one of these style trucks rotting away in a shed ..but it wasn't it..much newer truck. He had some odd stuff till scrap steel price went up..then cleared out

Thanks for all the positive feedback about the tire chains , I'm really glad i spent the time making them. Been busy working on our 32 g reef tank adding coral lately so the trucks been waiting..ya know what they say about squirrels Our newest addition is a black torch i bought off evil b ...showed up in rough shape but seems to like its new home I would be happy to help ya out after doing these pm me if ya want

Wow , sorry I haven't posted in a while your really making head way ! Adding the brass support was a good idea , you definitely don't need it buckling under the weight of the load. Keep up the great work

Outstanding work

Nice start !!!
