  11. i agree with Tom. if it is worth the money to you ? Then It is worth having it.I've not used any pe before, though I do have the KFS chain stretchers and tie down strap sets. I think I just may have to get one of the sets. Be Well Gator

  15. Michael, Thanks for your interest in this project . The long rear fenders came from the Revell of Germany Alaska hauler Peterbilt kit. But I don't think it would be too difficult to make a set ?? I am leaning towards a painted bumper, possibly with the big heavy push bar hook up plate. Just my 2 cents, but I'd take the front bumper and lightly scuff it with 0000 steel wool. A very light touch will create a worn bumper, fitting of a working truck. This will dull the chrome , but leave a satisfying appearance. Jeff, I had thought about using the steel wool trick. I had considered spraying it with some dull cote however . I will most likely end up painting the bumper and fenders all the same color. I am still thinking of going with red, but black and grey are also options. Anyway I will have a month to think about it.
