tsroark Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Hello, I don't post projects often but figured this one was off to a good start I would show it off. Started off as just a 3/4 ton flatbed build but has since grown into a crewcab sitting on a big rig chassis with a custom hood and fender flares, I will trim the chassis to standard 8' bed length, Probably 4x4. Even though it is on a truck chassis I want it to sit at a useable bed height, not in the air. I'm hoping to have the cab roughed in the next couple days.
Petetrucker07 Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Very interesting. Looks like the makings of an awesome build.
tsroark Posted November 6, 2015 Author Posted November 6, 2015 I just realized this was posted in the big rigs section, I did mean to drop it in pickups. Not sure if it matters or not as it is firmly in between.
gatorincebu Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Either way I think it is a cool project! Be Well Gator

It will have side tanks, haven't thought about exhaust routing yet. Other wise I haven't gotten much more done yet, I've just been working getting the floorboards and doorjambs done so I can move on to the crew part of the cab.
