Rusty92 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Going to replicate this! But I might make mine a bit more stubby.
Sam I Am Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 See what new shiny wheels and tires can do to an old rig. ?
gotnitro? Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Very cool project ! Going with a daycab certainly avoids dealing with replacing all the rivets getting the sleeper joint clean !! You mentioned going shorter wheelbase, interesting
JerseeJerry55 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I have the same project going. Leaving the frame stock length.
Oldmopars Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Great project, I like those. I too have one WIP.
Rusty92 Posted January 5, 2020 Author Posted January 5, 2020 Thank you for all the interest. I’m going to wash up the trees tomorrow and maybe even start on it. Going to order some wheels and tires from Danny at Scenes Unltd.
Rusty92 Posted January 8, 2020 Author Posted January 8, 2020 Well I bought the wrong kit. I thought the dual drive kit with the yellow and brown truck had the day cab in it as well. I will be changing it up and building the sleeper version I guess. Don’t want to buy another kit.

BaBaBooey Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Oh I know that truck. I heard what happened shortly after this pic was taken. ????
Vince66 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 @BaBaBooey Is that the one that either almost fell off the trailer or did while the moron was loading it and not using the inter-axle lock. Just don't know why it won't go on Duuuuuuuuuh.
JerseeJerry55 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 This is my cab. I did the stirrup steps with wire I found at Walmart.
