Well done, that truck looks really good

Well done

Chromed the front bumper and flashing yellow light base. Had to repair grill and rechrome after I dropped it. Hood and fenders are now prime red, maybe paint tomorrow.

Looking really good, I like your vision

That dash actually has the correct shape for the truck, or at least it really looks correct.

Thanks Jeff, but I will say, if the lights didnt work, I could add more parts to my box of bad ideas, which for some reason is getting bigger. 😜🥴

I am never sure of a color on a build and then one day during the assembly , it just hits me. My turquoise/white heavy haulers where a last minute choice, the GMC beer truck was matched to a decal set, the Autocar was last minute decision at the last second. Give it time, the color will expose itself.

Always willing to learn from a master, watchingg

Thanks guys

Lookin really good

Liking your progress

Not sure, something powerful, something forced air, something cool looking. What should I use? I have a couple Cummins X15.

Progress today, sleeper and headache rack paint complete, next add row of lights to the top of headache rack and slam locks, add slam locks to sleeper. Finished trimming front fenders and fitting bumper and are now in primer, maybe paint tomorrow. Installed driving lights and turn signals in bumper.

Raising that bar again🏆🏆

TS-45 Pearl White, little bit of sparkle, is my vote

You guys been asking, so here it is, another full custom where I break all the rules again. I have full custom front and rear fenders ordered, two different sets of custom wheels, lowered rear suspension, will build the lowered air front suspension and most importantly Chopped Top cab. I have been collecting parts for a while but was unsure of what truck to build, when I found the cab in my stash, decision made. It will be a little time before I start it as I wait for parts.

Clears the oil pan nicely

We all be a watchin 😉😂😃🤣😁 no pressure 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆you got this

This has been an interesting build for me but in a different way. This build has allowed me to just be creative, not follow any traditional rules of following a cover build or traditional build, it’s allowed me to mix and match all kinds of parts. Normally when I build a kit, I reach a dead spot or need a break or develop a mental block. I can’t wait to get to the bench everyday, staying highly motivated and looking forward to changing something else. This is a really fun build and yes, already thinking of a couple other builds where I can break all the rules again…….. Maybe a slammed old KW or Diamond REO with custom wheels, smooth out everything, cool color and….and……and.

Ok, I got front row in the center, popcorn, couple candy bars and a big drink. Now I’m watching😉😁😃

Really raising the bar on this build, those goodies will make this truck a looker.

Little more trimming and tightening up the look of this truck.

Front fenders reshaped to match bumper, gives the truck a cleaner look. Few more adjustments, then finish work begins.

Getting paint on headache rack and sleeper today. Also mocking-up front custom front bumper to trim fenders and build frame mount for bumper. Checking that cab is square to frame and hood alignment and grill are good.

Looking really good
