Thanks all. As soon as my 49 Merc is off the bench I’m going to start on this, so probably mid week or so. Stay tuned?

Thanks all, finally got a start on this, part of the frame is built, and I got the cab/sleeper/and hood basically together. Making progress though?

So, have made some progress on this over the last few weeks, been picking away at it along with a few other projects. I did however make an error on the decals, I somehow swapped the right and left sleeper decals, still looks ok, but as soon as I realized, it was too late, haha. So anyway, here is my progress…

You'd never know with the stripes, but that Cummins will leak oil everywhere if you leave it upside down.

Can’t leak if there is no oil in it, haha. 
 

I have a rolling chassis now, and a quick lopsided mock up to give a look at the colors together.

Awesome job!


The overall build has solid and calm feel to it. I like looking at it and I can already envision that the final build will turn out to be excellent for sure!
