  7. Great to have ya along Scott and Casey ! Both builds sound fantastic. Hopefully that spread axle flat bed makes it to retailers soon its very desirable Casey glad ya could rejoin us ! Really fun choices with the IH family . My step dad drove a 9300, w tri axle Mac dump im supposed to build if the squirrels ever leave me alone awhile!
  8. Nice build right there !!! These trucks are so nice to look at One thing I've done before that helps the look , take a thin strip of plastic and attach it under the cab door like a filler panel. It hides the see through effect .
  9. Thanks ! It's starting to be difficult to work around now all the bracing is going on before paint .. The rear springs have a radius rod type bar id assume is to keep axle centered . I got them from Dave Natale specific for this build . The trucks typically had a Cat bulldozer engine to power the blower unit , D 348 possibly. Theres a large rear mounted radiator also. Thanks , its definitely starting to look like a snowblower now instead of a huge pile of random parts.. Tonite I had a few spare minutes so I cleaned up the augers . Our 4 yr old said " it doesn't have teeth like Bumble ..did Hermie take his teeth out too ? She watches Rudolf too much . Well now it has the teeth ! I may add some meng bolts later

  14. Yeah painting was my challenge during winter till buying a vented booth now I can spray year round
  15. Good looking old Ford ! I've seen these for sale frequently, never sure enough about quality and the material used to click the buy now button Guess I'll live vicariously thru you ! The chassis plans sound good , as is the engine choice
  16. Looks like the shops been busy shooting Cummins beige. Looks good wired up, this mean your planning to butterfly the hood
  17. Love how subtle the changes are yet so dramatic
  18. Well done even with all the challenges !
  19. The plastics flying now ! Fun taking spare parts and repurposing them into something completely different
  20. Thats gonna be a monster! Love the plan drawing , I was helped by Gary Wallace years ago w a scaled down drawing of the fdm mixer I was building . Sure made it easier making parts fit and look right Ps..the phrase was also coined by Walt Disney when designing Walt Disney world bit of useless history
  21. Really nice combo , colors work very well together Good choice adding a dump trailer, really sells this as a work truck
  22. Oh...well it'll be an interesting project anyway..just kidding that was a WHAT ??? moment
  23. Welcome aboard Scott ! The Papa Truck is a great subject for a build looking forward to your progress
