Sergey Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 Great build, but I think truck frame should be shorter. I would build the cab from styrene. Good luck!
DrKerry Posted September 11, 2018 Author Posted September 11, 2018 Gauging the build to this photo, to me the wheel base looks fairly close.. I could be wrong though.... Ok I guess it does look antouch long!! K, easy fix!! I’ll chop the nose off tonight and shorten the leading edge of the belly!!
cowboy rich Posted September 12, 2018 Posted September 12, 2018 Cool project always thought when I passed them on I-5 "there's not enough money". I'll be watching

DrKerry Posted September 17, 2018 Author Posted September 17, 2018 Shortened the chassis up on it and brought the proportions in a bit better!!
gotnitro? Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Keep at it looking forward to more pics..

gotnitro? Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Your decision to shorten the frame was probably a good option, everything should flow better

DrKerry Posted September 21, 2018 Author Posted September 21, 2018 Cut chassis down, cab and hood as one.
bobthehobbyguy Posted September 21, 2018 Posted September 21, 2018 That is so wild. And its amazing its based on an actual vehicle rather than someones imagination of a vehicle. Keep up the good work.
DrKerry Posted September 22, 2018 Author Posted September 22, 2018 Thanks gents!! Got a front panel/firewall put in last night! I’m not going all nice and neat on this. It’s being built to look like it’s been used awhile. Panels aren’t lined up 100% and the body will have some rough areas in it to show character!
DrKerry Posted October 12, 2018 Author Posted October 12, 2018 Well, here we are, getting the Steer car near done! Next will be the KW tow rig and dolly, then the load that will span across the two! I have managed to get some things done! Bunk for the load, interior work, steering, and working on a tow bar right now!
gatorincebu Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 That is looking good. I like what you've done on this one thus far ! Be Well Gator
Yahshu Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 This is really cool but with the big rig accidents I've seen that's one rig I would not ride in. Keep up the excellent work.
Hermann Kersten Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Awesome project, I have never seen this vehicle before. That is why it is all the more fun that this vehicle is captured in a model. Hermann.
DrKerry Posted October 16, 2018 Author Posted October 16, 2018 Thanks gents!! Hope to get more work done on it this weekend! Get the body ready for paint and interior is about all that’s left on it! I’ll also be starting the KW tow rig that will be ahead of this mess!! Coming together!!!!
