    Thanks for the info Charles. Looking at yours, I think that your casting was a bit more accurate than mine.

    Looks amazing!

    That looks amazing Charles! Did you have to modify the headlights, if so how?
  6. DRIPTROIT 71
    Nice looking Peterbilt. Very clean!

    I’m not sure who cast this one. It will be powered by a 3208 Cat. The headlights were a bit off. I modified them a bit to help it a little and I cut open the hood.

    This is an A.IT.M. cab on an AMT Louisville chassis. It has 8v-71 Detroit power, Clint Freeman 2 hole Budd wheels, Double Take steer tires, Scenes Unlimited drive tires, and various other parts box items. This is meant to depict a restored tractor.

    My decals proved to be a little small, but I am going with it. Moving along though.

    Thanks for posting the picture. This was one of the inspiration trucks. The other one had 2 hole Budd wheels. I did add dual stacks, which is different from any of the reference trucks that I found. I did that for two reasons. First, the Detroit just wanted dual stacks. Second, I wanted to use the odd offset stack set up that Ford used. The driver side stack sets closer to the middle than the passenger stack. I thought that was an interesting detail, so I wanted it to have it.

    Thanks Chuck! It was a lot of fabricating.

    Thanks Mike! Thanks Dan!! They still have semi drag races and circle track races, but I don’t know if many, or if any use a 2 stroke Detroit anymore. I haven’t kept up with it either.
