359 Pete

[TopherMcGinnis]

I've been a gear head since the day the Dr dropped me on my head ?. Ever since I can remember I've always loved Peterbilt rigs. I started this one a few years ago, its one of the 1st models I painted successfully with an airbrush. I stretched and lowered it, built a custom visor for it and got aftermarket wheels for it. I believe it's time to wrap this guy up.

Great color, will look good with lots chrome.

Great color and paint work!

Thank You! I painted some chrome bits this evening and got the Big Kitty installed. I love the Molotow, but boy do i need to practice fine detail painting.

Sure enough! The u-joints are in phase so it shouldn't vivrate too bad ?

Very interesting. For what they are these kits build pretty nice. I like your wheels.

[TopherMcGinnis]

Thank You for the kind remarks! I put the cab and hood on this evening. Should be crossing the finish line this weekend.

Hey Topher

 Nice build, are those rear tires from the kit, or aftermarket?

Thank You. They're aftermarket wheels and rubber tires. They're Lo Pro tires too. I bought them 5 or 6 years ago. I'll see if I can find the site I bought them from for you.

Agreed! I haven't done much on mine, except put the hood back on.

Going to look great when all done. By the way what color blue is that and the brand. Keep up the good work.

I agree. It is one of my favorite color combos.

The truck has a mean tough look!  And the bright color is also eye catching!  I really like it.

You did a fantastic job customizing the way it looks.

[TopherMcGinnis]

Finishing up this Duece. I thought it'd look good beside Pete.
