Jim B Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 This should look really nice. I'd go with the 5-hole wheels. As for colors, maybe blue & white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gatorincebu Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Jacobus, The mock up with the 5 hole wheels and the headache rack look good. I would go with that. The candy wrapper on the seats work. I like the effect. Be Well Gator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leafsprings Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) The aitm 351 conversion is a great choice, very happy with mine, its a shame AMT didn't offer it as a optional front end back in the day. A top view of the classic square door Pete cab shows it's triangular, the narrow nose 351 hood follows the triangular pattern.
