I have the frame built and partly detailed the cab and front bumper built and in paint . I hope to have pics next month thankfuly I have a few more months to get this build done. "if "the weather holds out this weekend will get the engine and frame painted . I got what I needed from Hobby Link for the parts needed . at the same time trying to get 2 builds finished for an upcoming show .

I have built the frame according to the instructions and in test fitting the floor pan to me there is to much spread at the front of the frame do the front two cross members need to be narrowed , from what I see when the cab is mounted it will have major side shift any help will be great thank you . Also are the fuel injector lines exposed ? .again thank you for any help on this kit

Looking good so far Tom
