clayton Posted March 26, 2018 Author Posted March 26, 2018 Mockup,found a set of 2 hole buds. Will be a plain Jane work horse. In need of the lower cab corners,seems I have lost mind.
clayton Posted March 26, 2018 Author Posted March 26, 2018 Maybe if it clears up Tomorrow,will try to paint.

clayton Posted March 27, 2018 Author Posted March 27, 2018 First bit of paint. Was thinking Today Dad had a old Freight Liner that was white with a orange trim. Wish I could find the photo. These bright colors are funky to work with.
clayton Posted March 27, 2018 Author Posted March 27, 2018 Input! White and orange frame or all orange. The cab will be white and orange.
TheSDTrucker Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 I think the white and orange frame colors would be unique, I don't see a whole lot of that. Those two colors work really nice together.

But it appears that it is a bright orange, so I think the white would be a nice color to really make the piece pop.
towman1271 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 I agree with white on the frame.. will make the cab stand out better
clayton Posted March 28, 2018 Author Posted March 28, 2018 Got the white on. Next will be the orange trim on the cab.

clayton Posted March 31, 2018 Author Posted March 31, 2018 Dirt motor,a little too dirty. Ahh it blew up.
clayton Posted March 31, 2018 Author Posted March 31, 2018 Almost there,maybe I can get the cab painted today. And work on the cab rest,it needs to be fabricated since I removed to much from the cab. Thanks!!
clayton Posted March 31, 2018 Author Posted March 31, 2018 Well!! I'm kinda thinking of a thin border.
clayton Posted March 31, 2018 Author Posted March 31, 2018 How about now,kinda pushing my luck on the paint. Little bit of clean up here and there.
