Looks good man. The mirrors are so much esters to do when they're stripped.

What are you people, on dope!

The first company out this way I seen with skirts was Mesilla Valley Transport. They started using super singles, the put big moon discs over the rims, then bought Prostars, exclusively. Then they put skirts, then the trailer tails, I've seen a few with some sort of thing between the cab and trailer.

Boy Matt got a pic of every 1 I mentioned above. Prime has them on their newer spread axle flatbeds, not exactly sure how they help on those. I've also seen them on some end dumps out here.

Welcome aboard fellow truck builder. I too like to build equipment and hot rods. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

That looks really good. That red makes this thing pop big time. Well done.

That metallic black looks awesome. I really need to get a couple of these trucks. Very well done Bill.

This 1 nice 55. Very nicely executed. Well done!

That's right. All it takes is a bit of ingenuity and set of tools.

Thanks Dennis. I'll get started on this as soon as I have room to store while in process.

Welcome jon, building trucks is addicting and pushes you to do better. Ask questions and there are a bunch of us willing to help

Thanks man. Your a trailblazer in modeling now, and early in your experience.

This thing is gonna need head room too. The vertical mast is 18" tall.

Welcome to the forum, again.

I'll be ordering this this week. I'll be right behind ya.

That is lookin good Jesse.

Welcome to the forum.

Not my cup of tea, but the work is amazing. The detail is awesome, very well done. This should be in Lowrider magazine.

Lookin good Tyrone. I'm not a Ford guy at all but the work you do is awesome. I'm gonna be building a twin turbo sleeper for the Cannonball contest on here. Great work so far. I'll definitely be lookin in on this.

Awesome work. Your making some nice progress. Lookin good man.

I wanna say the government kinda bullied companies into them around 2011. There are different types, some are straight sheets of aluminum that are mounted at an angle, there is a type that is aluminum that runs straight then angles in, there is a composite/plastic type that is formed with ribs in it and some companies paint them to match, a couple companies out here that have those are Stockley and Wanship. Western Distribution out of Denver has a few trailers where they mounted those big chrome whale tails underneath. There is also a box looking deal that does the same thing. The purpose of the skirts is fuel economy. I have yet to make any but there is a few members who have. Hope this rambling helps.

I hit a little snag. I forgot that I had traded off the Del Ray. Now I gotta get 1. I may get a 56 Nomad or the Del Ray, not certain at this moment.

Lookin very good man. Nice progress.

Very nice work. Well done.

Sorry. I hate when I think faster than I type.
