  1. Those tanks really look good with the weld detail
  2. Thanks guys,will add more detail later, chains, grab handle and stuff. Looked up specs for a load ramp, base on the ground to deck height, it suggested a 14 ft ramp. Didn’t know there a specs for ramps.
  3. That looks really, going with a fifth wheel on this ? Rear fenders might look good on this build.
  4. Wow, that is a nice detail, eager to see paint on the tanks to see how that detail shows up.
  5. Progress, getting primer on the box and sanding, over and over and repeat. Got the loading ramp fabricated, now to build the storage for the ramp.
  6. Nice detail, looking good, I like the light weathering
  7. Wow, these little parts are a pain with my old fat fingers. I think everything is made for the back doors, if I am missing something please speak up. Now I can attach the rear door panel to the box and start finishing the box. didn’t loose any tiny bolts this time?, only made the door latches three times trying to get the correct size.
  8. Love the look of your engine, I need to duplicate that for my GMC build. Well done
  9. Looking really good, I am like Steve afraid to mess up a good build. I always like to display a well kept truck that shows the miles. But I do have to learn the weathering detail.
  10. Thanks Jeff, agree on the beer thanks Steve, trying to reach your build standard??, you guys just keep raising the bar. I’m just trying to keep up and stealing ideas from you guys.
  11. Need to make the latches top and bottom for each door, next. will not glue latch assembly on doors until after paint, doors will be painted white with an aluminum color around the perimeter of each door, latch will be painted aluminum then attached. I should be able to slide the decal under the latch for the beer logo.
  12. Wow, what a beautiful rig, very well done.
  13. One door latch made. Every time I cut a .8 Ming bolt of the card, it just vanished into thin air never to be found. But I got em.
  14. And they actually work, got the hinges wrapped up and glued on. Now to build the door latches.
  15. Looks the business for sure, good recovery
  16. Well done, the details make the difference from an average build to a top notch build.
  17. I really like the chrome tape effects, well done. Can you post a link or picture of that tape?
  18. The kit that you are using, did it come with two frames for tandem and single axle? If so the single axle (short frame) could be the donor for a frame section and should be the same height and width.
