    Thanks Dan! But, I hope nobody starts it until I fill it up with oil.?

    Thanks Sam!! The cab is finally attached. I think that the engine is done.

    Looks good! Nice work! That engine looks pretty oily, are you sure that it’s not a Detroit??

    I hope to build a day cab some time. My last one was a Sourcraut. I think that I l’m going to try one of Dave’s next.

    Different sizes for different builds. I usually have some scrap but sometimes have to pick up some small pieces at the hardware and see what looks best. With this one being 1/24 you may want a little bigger tank. The pipe is measured in inside diameter. I think that I’ve used 1/2 and 3/4 before, but don’t hold me to that.

    Looking good! The seats look good. Sometimes I use the high back seats on just the drivers side. Great work!

    Well I actually got back to this one today. Plumbed a few lines and all the wheels are attached now.

    Wow!! Brian you’re really knocking this thing out!! It looks great!! I like it! The two hole rims are an excellent choice! I don’t know if you have made a decision on the tanks yet, but sometimes I use PVC pipe and either paint it or I have wrapped it in thin aluminum glued on with two part epoxy.

    Oh man that looks good!!!

    Awesome looking build! Great job on the conversion. A lot of differences that sometimes go unnoticed like the door hinges. I hope to do a 4000 myself some day. I like the short wheel base and the breather set up that you chose. The exhaust is interesting. I’ve only seen one truck in real life that had it ran all the way out the back like that. Most stop behind the cab. Very unique. The weathering looks awesome! Great job all around!

    When you said simulate or duplicate, I thought that you meant that you were going to fabricate one like it. Looks like a great project! You have my attention!
  23. DRIPTROIT 71
    Did I understand that you are going to fabricate the cab yourself?
  24. DRIPTROIT 71
    Another Dodge semi! You have my attention!!
  25. DRIPTROIT 71
    That looks sharp!! I like the color on the frame!!
