Thanks for the comments and the encouragement guys!!

Looking great! Good call on cutting out the grill.

Thanks Richard. There was a truck show just a few miles from home today. Not a lot of trucks, but a few good ones. Thanks Dan. I actually have 3 7000/7400 cabs. Two are from Spaulding, the other is from Back Yard Shed (Which I paid more for than I probably should have). The quality is better on the Spaulding cabs. Every Back Yard Shed 7400 cab that I've seen is warped in the back. Since I was going to cut out the back and replace it anyway, I'm just going to cut a little deeper and make a day cab. Thanks Gator, I'm just hoping to find a source or maybe even the software to make the decals.

I don't generally like to have two projects going at once, so this one may not start until I finish the Mack. I've been planning a White 7000 day cab for a while as my next project, Today I saw this one and now I want to get started. I went ahead and started a post because I am hoping that someone can offer some help in decals to make this truck. I have some good side shots, but do not have any software suitable for making clean and accurate decals. Any help would be appreciated...Brian

I thought that I would add this picture that I took today as inspiration.

Thanks for the comments Tom and Michael!! Well I made a little progress. The passenger side tank has been made and mounted with straps. Battery box lids are made. I tried a different look on the deck. The first one that I made, was not acceptable, but I think that I'm going to keep this one.

You've got some nice builds going there Terry. I think that we might have similar taste in trucks. I was trying to pick a favorite, but I don't think that I can. They all are great!

Very nice work!!

WOW!! and WOW!!! Incredible!!

Looks Excellent!!

I like what you've come up with! Very nice work!! The interior looks spot on!

Looks like a great project that's off to a great start.

The Ford looks great!! Makes me want one. Very nice fleet as well!! I really like the Ultraliner! Who produced that one?

There was one made, because I have one. It is a big rear window cab, but it is a 67 (no marker lights). It also has a long bed. I have no idea who made it though.

I would be very interested in seeing those photos!! Thanks!

I like it!! I like the paint scheme! The dual fans at the windshield are a nice touch that really adds to capturing that mid to late 70's K100 look.

Looking Great!!

Looking great!!! The added steps on the tanks really set them off.

Great looking builds!! I've admired your work on Hank's Forum. Glad to see you posting on here. Top notch work!!! Looking forward to seeing more!!

Looking Great!! Sorry to hear about the paint. I thought that type of thing only happened to me.
