Freightshaker COE question
Vince66 replied to Vince66's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Thanks helps a little does it angle straight down behind the air lines. I ask as the mini me freightshaker i'm working on is almost like a tunnel straight up on both sides and straight across the top. Looking at you freightshaker shows I need to model mine thanks now just need a view of the lower portion of the opening. -

Just the beginning Herman mostly scratched like your truck's. Still have the generic trans to build, have some more photo etch coming. Seeing how far i can go with this truck build. Then can just build basic truck's. Getting ready to work on the interlock axle then can build the primary axle. Thanks all for checking it out. -

Vince66 replied to Snake45's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Another small update. Started working on a generic v8 for this truck. Cut the grill apart so I can eventually make it tilt. Using my GMC crackerbox as rough guidelines for the motor Yup i know it's a Jimmy 6 and i'm doing an 8. Well a little more progress still need to beef up this generic V8 with pullies. So here are 3 rough shots of the motor, in the frame, in the frame with cab. Also working on the mufflers and air cleaners -
Can anyone provide a rear cab photo of the stock amt freightliner kit. Particularly the engine opening area. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Frame overall length is a whopping 3.18 inches long lol. Just a tad longer than the stock kw test frame. I'm in trouble just ordered more photo etch for this truck. Thanks BR63 it's getting there. Might end up regretting titling this truck not sure yet lol. Next one is going to be a surprise already have it figured out. -
