DRIPTROIT 71

Looks great!! I really like the paint scheme on the truck! Great work building the trailer too!!

Very nice work!!! I never really gave these trucks a second look before, but after seeing how great you guys make them look, I may have to try one some day myself. I really like the colors on this one!

Wow! Looks great!! This is one of my favorite builds right now!!

Looks Incredible so far!! Looking forward to seeing more!!

Cool project!! I'll be watching!!

WOW!!!! Incredible scratch building going on here!!

I like it!!

This is one awesome build! I'm taking notes too. I have a 6-71 from Gary for my Crackerbox too. I like how you put both the intake and exhaust on the passenger side. Although there were plenty of variations most of the road tractors I've personally seen, as well as the photo in my service manual labeled "typical vehicle engine" are set up this way. That's the great thing about Gary's engine, it can be built several ways. Looks Great!!!

I like what you have so far Ken!! I always like your color selections!!

What he said!! I need lessons too!

Glad to see you back on this one! That is one tough looking rig! I like how you did the hood. I tried that years ago with an old MTFA B61 cab, but was never happy with the results. Yours looks great!

Very cool project! Looking forward to seeing your progress on this one!

I would like to see a contest for 2019 too. I would like to suggest a 6 month contest. It seems that the contest gets forgotten drawn out over a year. If there is interest, I'll be glad to draw up a few rules and moderate the contest. If someones else would rather, then that's okay too.

I think Goodwrench3 started the TAT 2018 but life got in the way as sometimes happens and family comes first. I finished mine too, but didn't post it Under Glass as a TAT entry because I assumed that the contest had stalled.

Looking forward to seeing more!!

This looks really great!!

Engine looks sharp!!

Looks Amazing!!

Wow!! Some incredible scratch building going on here!!

Looks like you knocked this one out of the park Ken, but I thought it was going to be a Winter project.

Looks great! I always hate putting in the windows on a resin cab though. It usually causes my blood pressure to rise.

Now everything about this is Cool!! You can't go wrong with a Detroit powered Crackerbox!! I have part of an 8v-71, but it's missing several parts that I used on my 4-71. I'll look, but I don't think that I have another. Looking forward to this one!!
