mackinac359 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I've been working to get these two finished before they go with me to the open house at Peterbilt in October. First up: A model 389 heavy hauler The inspiration: Next is the aero tractor from the Fox Valley of Wisconsin, a 2010 386. The inspiration: Many more pics and the build info is on the Workbench page of my site www.timstrucks.com Thanks for looking! Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loghauler70 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Tim Of course I am I have one posted here a 378 set back front axle with a scratch built trailer and a 367 set forward axle in progress both hoods from P&P both awesome hoods. I actually tried to email you through your site but I couldn't get it ot work for some reason. I wanted to build my 367 as 2010 model and I had a couple questions and I knew you were the man to ask. I built it as a 2008 that I saw at the Oregon logging confrance instead. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
