Now I’m getting everything figured out on getting those Terminator eyes to work and how I’m going to hide most of everything on the truck. YAY.

I’ve gotten more work done to the truck cab and cab sleeve. I got the cab and cab sleeve cut out, for those Terminator eyes. I got the bed glued back into the cab sleeve and everything is coming together just fine. The wires are going to be going through this hole on the cab floor and I’m putting a on/off switch here. It’s where the ash tray originally was. I got the visor from TruckerAL.

Here’s the cab to the truck. In a couple days, I’ll mask it off and then paint the main color on it. This has been a really fun build.

Here’s the Terminator eyes lit up. I just took out a battery pack from a flashlight and held the wires to each end of that battery pack.

Your paintwork looks great!

Seeing the the T-Eyes lit up brought a smile to my face.

Thank You. I’m glad to hear about the eyes. I’m able to put my pinky finger in through the passenger window and push that button to turn the eyes on and off. I was wanting stickers of the eyes, to put there, and came across those eyes and decided to get them and make them work, while keeping everything for them as concealed as possible.

I haven’t forgotten about this project. I’m just waiting on a self locking switch, so that I could turn the eyes on and off. I have everything else I’m needing for the project.

Looks cool!

All in all, a nicely built truck.

Any plans for the tank trailer?

Thank You. I’m already done with the trailer. Once I have this part of my build done, I’ll be posting the truck and trailer in the Under Glass section.

Here’s the last of the pictures I’ll be posting here of this build. I’ll be sure to post when I’m done and you’ll be able to see it in Under Glass.
