Mopar - D Posted January 29, 2017 Author Posted January 29, 2017 Jacobus I thought it was the Chevy I did the same set up on my other Dodge cab a few years ago.
Mopar - D Posted February 4, 2017 Author Posted February 4, 2017 Started working on the trailer suspension so that I can get spacing with the new wheels and tires set up to get the side filler panels printed. I've got a co-worker that just bought a 3D printer and is looking for projects to print so he's waiting on me to give him the details.
gatorincebu Posted February 4, 2017 Posted February 4, 2017 Dan, This one is looking good about now ! Be Well Gator
Mopar - D Posted February 5, 2017 Author Posted February 5, 2017 Thanks Terry. Working on getting the cab ready for paint ? and a sample mock up of the cab sitting on the frame. 1
landman Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Taking shape nicely. What exactly did you use on the wheels to get that "black chrome" look?
Mopar - D Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Paul I use this metal chrome powder over gloss black paint.
gatorincebu Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Looks good ! Going to have to try to find some of that chrome stuff. Be Well Gator

Mopar - D Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 This weekend I've been working on the cab again was able to get some primer on the cab after grinding around the inside of the windows to allow the glass to fit closer to the out side edge. Chromed the front bumper and started figuring out what to use for the air cleaner and air stack plus how to route the exhaust pipe. My co-worker said he was going to work on 3D printing the trailer fill ins for the wheels this weekend so I may have more updates tomorrow. Thanks for the comments I appreciate them. Still in test fitting 1
Tesla Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Excellent progress and everything looks great!
gatorincebu Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Looking really good thus far ! be Well Gator
Mopar - D Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Thanks guys. Tom did you get a snow day today?
tbill Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Dan, no snow day, but work was slow due to snow, so i tried to catch up on the forum
Mopar - D Posted February 20, 2017 Author Posted February 20, 2017 Not to much to show worked more on the cab spraying primer and sanding it plus I worked with my 9 year old grand daughter building a 67 Chevy Impala that she is going to enter in her first model show in April Got my 3D printed filler pieces for the trailer set in they fit nice I will need to add a little filler on them to fill in some little holes and then add the ribs. 1
gatorincebu Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Dan, You have this project moving right along and looking real good ! Be Well Gator
