    good to hear from you Michael. mine could have been a bad batch, use it on gauges only. if you have been inspired by something it is good to hear. I don't really study real truck pictures much, and try not to replicate anything.

    bodywork mocked up. don't care for the notch under the tire rack. other than that I really like the looks. stacks to be omitted also and dumped behind fuel tanks.

    William I know your cab is different but can be done in a similar manner. the right drill bit size made the fit snug enuff to not need glue. the outside appearance is barely visible. if you should have anymore questions feel free to ask.

    I like the basic layout of this kit and its proportions. tires were stuffed with tissue upper right so they fill out the rims upper left. left alone is shown lower left.
