Dodge LN 1000 day cab


Recommended Posts

This is the Keystone Aluminum (AITM) resin Dodge day cab with a AMT Frightliner donor kit.  My Super Bee Trucking bottom dump trailer needed to truck to pull it and I liked the look of the COE day cab pulling it. I started to go with the Cummins engine until Stace recommended a Detroit Diesel that he gave me to use so it has a Detroit Diesel from a GMC Astro. The rear tires are from Scenes Unlimited and paint is from Scale Finish’s. This makes 9 dump trucks in the Super Bee Trucking fleet and I have plans for more lol.

You know I’m a big cabover fan, especially daycabs! This is a great looking rig!

Thanks Brian

Really nice Dodge.  Very well done.  I followed along on your WIP thread to get some ideas for when I do my own Dodge L000.

Thanks Jim. Let me know if you have any questions I’ve built 6 of these trucks now.

Wonderful job, great looking combo. Could I do one in 1/32 I wonder 🤔

Thanks Steve. I’m sure you can do one in 1/32.

These extremely cubic Dodges look really odd, I have a sleeper version still in my stash. Such an unusual COE and your unusual dumper go together really well!

Thanks Jurgen

Great build! Job well done. I enjoyed the build process too! 

Thanks Brian. My new WIP is a replica of my old 1:1 Rx-7 I had back in 1983.

Nail on the head, for sure. Sharp as a tack! Well done!
