The roof needs more work as I smooth it out, drip gutters on top of the doors need to be added! That is all for now and comments are always welcomed here Randy

The cowlimg piece in the above photo is just set in place for now... next up is the roof, I made up the final version of a form for shaping the roof out of MDF that came from a piece of lamiate flooring, very hard stuff I can beat on..... the roof is .005 brass sheet.... after heating to cherry red, I shape with a small hammer.. since this will be painted I can make the corners by 'pie cutting' then filling in with solder....

filing insets in the door frames..

Finally got some bench time, Alyn , Thanks for the kind words! Hi Joe, Thanks mate Rob, Going to paint it, a lot of the interior does stay bare metal. Thanks Clay! Jason, Thank you, Glad you like the rake, I think with a long hood it should look good. Tony, Thank you for the support! Hi Romell, Thank you for checking in Daniel, Thanks for the paint info! Hi Ron, Thanks for sticking with this Hi Greg, Don't think we ever met. Steve, The rivets on the floor are Scale Hardware products. Thanks Chuck, Love what you are doing with your truck and trailor! Nathan, Thank you. Hello vohelpe, I did get your email and I apologize for not repling before this! The copper cab pieces are from .008 stock, the cab floor and firewall and seat are made from .008 tin sheet, the cab roof you will see in this update is .005 sheet stock. My usual method for cutting is to scribe a line with an awl then cut out close to the line with scissors or drills then come up to the finished line with filing. Hi Shane, Thank you for commenting. Last but not least, Fastback John, Thank you ,my friend, for your encouragement along the way On with an update... Adding frame work in the cab interior... Making up some door hinges, I cut down some small hinges from 'Micro Mark' ...
