DRIPTROIT 71

Thanks Dan! I cut them down to represent the 80 gallon versions. That appears to be what is on the reference trucks. Thanks for all the comments guys!

You may be on to something, the next one planned will have a 903. I’ll get straightened out eventually though.?

Looks Awesome Pat!! I need an estimate on the engine in my pickup. Small block Chevrolet. When can you fit me in?

Looks great!

Looks good!

Thanks so much Alex!! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks Jim! Thanks so much! I am always inspired by your builds! Thanks Dan! I was torn between red, yellow and orange, but yellow is my favorite. Thanks! That look seems to be my normal. Thanks JT! I almost painted this one orange, but decided to go with yellow.? Thanks! Thanks for all the encouragement Vince! Thanks! I did almost take some snow pictures of it. Thanks!! Thanks! I’m glad that I went with the black hood. I almost painted it yellow too. Thanks Chris!! Thanks Brian!! Thanks! Yours looks great too!!

Looks great!

Wow! That looks Awesome! Very nice work for sure!

The tires in the new 4070a kit look pretty good to me as well. If those are the ones in the tire packs, I may get a set.

Very nice! I like the outside pictures!

Out of the previous 27 builds I have only used the AMT 855 Cummins twice, so I have a ziplock bag full of Cummins parts. I sort of Frankensteined together a representation of a NH 230 Cummins for this build. It is going to take a lot of butter to squeeze it in this one though.

Thanks! You will recognize at least one part.

Looking good!!

Very cool! Never saw one of those. The squirrels would just wreck that on my work bench. ?

This just keeps getting better and better! You do some great weathering! I like the top for the dozer! Excellent work going on here!

Thanks for the comments guys. Out here in the country, squirrels can be a real problem. ? I didn’t like the wheelbase. It looked too long to me, so I shortened it up a bit.

Thanks again for the comments!! I have a first mock up.

Oh man that looks good!!! The dozer looks Awesome!!

I like what you are doing here. I had a similar problem with the S series International dump that I built. The wheels and tires wouldn’t fit under the bed. I ended up widening the bed. A couple weeks later I was behind a dump truck going down the road and noticed the tires were sticking out from under the bed on it. So depending on how much they are too wide a 1:1 might be similar. Looking forward to seeing more of this one!

Looks awesome!! I like the off road Paystar!? Excellent work for sure. Are those 66” tires all the way around?

I really like this one!! Great choice for sleeper! Looks great! Nice work!

Very nice! I see a lot of these around here!

This will be a cool project! You and I are building similar trucks. Mine will have one of those grilles as well.

This will be a cool project!

Man that looks Awesome! This is a really cool project! What is your height going to be with added roof rack?
