Looking forward to seeing your build.

Here's my January entry to B.R.B.O. Im going with a AITM resin Brockway 758 cab with the reissued DM600 as my donor and the dump body from the Revell KW kit. Paint will be yellow and black.

Thanks Vic, I've started on the Detroit diesel engine from the Pete that has a lot of chrome parts that I have in for stripping. I also cut the hood from the cab. The interior and the firewall are going to need a lot of rework to fit right. Going through my parts boxes I found one exhaust stack support but don't have one for the other side. If anyone has one of these supports and willing to sell or,trade it would be appreciated. The support is from the Chevy Astro. See picture. Happy New Years

Nice progress JT.

Started buffing out the clear coat and found that it is still not cured hard yet on the body. Was able to do the top and hood. I've test fit the body on the chassis with the interior glued in place and it has a nice tight fit.

Thanks James, I think your right it looks like the panels under the doors are to tall. If I trim them down it will make the gap your referring to smaller. I'm using this site for my reference http://www.olddodges.com they are restoring one of the 2 that were built back in 75.

Shorten the frame to 145" and test fitting.

My first one was the AMT North American truck that was a very simple truck after the was the IMC Dodge L700 and then the AMT Pete.

Sergei I'm going to use some thin clear plastic like on my other Bighorn here.

Here's a picture of what I'm basing my build to.

I have the clear coat on now and working to buff it out and decided to add some more hoses and wires in the engine compartment. Plan to have her finished by the end of the year.

Looking good Sean, l like the colors.

Looking good JT any ideas on what your going to use for a load of cars?
