  1. Moved to Under Glass. Thanks to everyone one commented during the build!!
  2. Calling this one finished. There are some things that I would have done differently if I had it to do over, but over all I'm happy with how it turned out. It sits on the Freightliner chassis. The cab is a cut down Back Yard Shed cab.

  3. Very nice build JT!! Your fabrication looks spot on!! Great Work!!
  4. That is one sharp looking mixer! Excellent work! I really like this one!!!!
  5. Looks like you found a real bargain. Looks pretty nice.
  6. You build all of the cool stuff! Every time I get an idea you make it. I was just thinking today that it would be cool to build a Western Star with a set back front axle, and here it is.
  7. It's amazing how it's already looking like the real thing!
  8. Looking good! That's a big sleeper!
  9. Great project!! I always wanted to shorten the hood on one of these. I would really like to see the difference between the Auslowe engine and the GW Trucks engine.
  10. Thanks for all of the comments guys!! You nailed it Ken. I actually have a shaking most of the time and don't see as well as I use to, but still enjoy building. In my poorly lit room I thought that it looked pretty good when I had finished. Once I posted the photos I saw how bad it looked. Before the night was over I had made some out of foil tape for every hose except the intake pipe at the manifold because it is so tight in there. It is still not perfect, but it looks a lot better than it did. Thanks again to everyone who has commented!!
  11. Nice work Sam!! What do you use for lines and where do you get it?
  12. You're coming along very nicely! Looks Great!!
  13. Very nice!! All of your paint jobs are awesome!
  14. That is one sharp looking rig!!! Great work!!
