Mackinac359 Could You Tell Me About Your 1950 Pete?

I ran across this at Hanks trucks,

could you share any info on how you built it. At the very least how about some more pics?

The 350 COE was built in '02 I think. The cab is a resin cast item from Illini Replica Conversions (no longer actively casting).

I got the cab from Evan Hermel. The livestock body is made from a junked Wilson livestock trailer. The wheels and tires are from the former RNK Conversions.

More pics are on www.timstrucks.com

Thanks, I like those old trucks, there is just something about 50's cabovers. I figured it was resin but thought it might be the guy casting old Peterbuilts a few years back (Silver city, Silver state? something like that). Should have bought some when he was casting, I really had my eye on some of his 40's Peterbilt conventional cabs, but as they say you snooze you lose.
