May 1st update is Yet AGAIN NOTHING... URGH... I am getting Ticked off... still no styrene to build the hood and I checked the dates again and a sigh of relief for I thought the end date was the end of the month... but no its October...lol

Cool... If you ever stumble across the 68 correct parts from that old MPC kit I believe is what it needs to be let me know... I'm looking for the correct 68 one year only stuff for that kit...

This is looking pretty cool... keep it up (Yeah coming from a gm guy lol)

Cool... I will have to find one of the smp ones laying around somewhere unless you can spare one of your other ones and find the 64 parts I need to convert mine...lol

I think it was that one or another pete I saw painted up with the General Lee logos on it...

so there is a 4 door corvair that came out... I have my eye on a 64 Monza that is sitting up in ohio right now... wondering about that old model your going to dig out if its a 4 door?...

LaFerrari... Ive been after one for a while since I got back from seeing one in real life...

I'm going to repost this one... for it should be STUPID EASY if you ever been around music long enough...

Tool - Jambi

April update is NOTHING still... Its making me mad I cant get that hood finished yet.. urghhh

Thanks they still need some final fill work in a couple spots...

Heres one... "She can quit her job and be his little bride He can get a local route and stay home by her side She can fix him roast beast and sweet potato pie He can eat a lot of it cuz he's a big ole guy They got married in Dollywood (by a Porter Waggoner lookalike)"

Nothing new sadly via im so busy with NALP meeting coming up next week in MSU which is formerly known as PLANET... maybe when I get done with NALP I may have something later I don't know right now...sorry

That's much better. Battery boxes have some issues... the fuel tanks are the same way but not noticeable... not sure which way I will fix that yet...

I am building a Set Forward not a set back... and the sump does clear everything so far...

Update- Nothing done just monthly update to keep qualified... may have styrene in a week or two to build that hood and cab filler corners?

Glass installed, firewall area of interior tub painted to match and some odd and ends... Didn't like the YELLOW that the engine was painted contrasting to the orange of the truck so I ripped it out carefully and will repaint it either Pete white or CAT Yellow?...

Thanks

Everything is sub'd in the lower pic... I just need styrene sheets to build out the hood and cab filler panels...

Well the cab stripe started flaking back off but I think I maybe able to save it so I repainted the roof since I opened up the holes and maybe able to put a new stripe right over the old one (whats remaining since the rest wont come off) and that should save me from stripping the cab and having to find another can of that color... urghhhh

Body is pretty much ready for primer... just no primer and not the good enough weather yet to do any paint work... Tanks both Air and fuel are done sanded... Parts still need sanding and cleaned: Various stuff sanded and ready for primer... Frame needs more work and straightening out a bit before primer for it...

Dang flash "Flashed" out my Peterbilt logo... Better shot of the grill prior to installation-

Nice work so far.

Nice work on the hood so far... aka kw fenders just doesn't look right to me for some reason on a pete...
