  1. JT nice progress and thanks for the tip.
  2. Made a little progress with installing the engine and shorting the drive shaft. Also started the exhaust pipes going to the stacks. Currently spiltting my time with finishing up my Satelitte.
  3. Pat you have you have your cab set just right now. Are you still going to cut open the hoods?
  4. I agree with Sean on this build too.
  5. Pat it looks much better sitting lower in the back and yes I would move the cab back a little. I had to remove some from the back side of the front grill.
  6. Nice strach building this will be a interesting build to follow.
  7. Pat looking good. Yea your right there is a lot of cutting on the firewall/dog house with this kit.
  8. Terry I was thinking the same thing.
  9. Juergen, the hood ornament is resin and came with the resin bighorn cab from Frontier resin. I also have one for this one to.
  10. JT sorry to here about your computer glad to see your still able to build even with cold weather we're having.
  11. Sean I'm going to go with the short stacks to. I also think it makes it look tough.
  12. Thanks Terry, that first picture has the exhaust details that I've been trying to figure out thanks. I knew where the stack supports were located but not how the pipes were routed from the engine to the stacks. And they look to be chrome to. Thanks

  14. Sean that tilt looks great with the grille split.
  15. Jacobus your making very nice progress.
  16. Thanks guys I'm having fun with this one. Every time I go over the pictures from the reference site I seam to find something else that I need to add or change. But I'm still moving forward.
