     You did some real fine work on the cab conversion! The paint looks good. I really like the headache rack, and the rear fenders.

  I will have to try that trick myself.

     Its a good looking rig !

Luke, The whole rig is very nicely done. I especially like your headache rack design as it has boxes for the chains and binders.

I have to admit, I've never been a big fan of the full, rear fenders look, that is until NOW. I love how you worked the two sets together, it really looks quite natural. The fenders matching the rack really compliment the rest of tractor.

I really like this kit, massive potential. I find the hardest part is filling in that wedge on the cab roof (lots of putty and sanding I guess).

 

The trailer looks quite well done as well. Makes me want to have another go at a detach goose neck again.
