Been away a while but been messing with this one when I can.

Every other truck I have started is packed up or busted up so this is my new start I guess.

Lot of custom work on this one.

It will be trimmed out with a lot of my scratch built and stainless metal items.

That's the reason for this build is to show off the items that I sell for these trucks.

The hood has a straight edge all the way down like the 379 for the look without stretching the hood, cowl, fenders are not finished.

It has my grille insert on it and it will have Stainless trim with a Stainless turbo and single lights with J brackets.

It will have a wide bumper for the front.

The cab window brace's have been removed, front and side, it will have my parts added Stainless Visor, Vortex style Air Breathers, Lower cab trim, custom mirrors.

The sleeper has my Light panel on it with the visor style rings, my airlines will be added later.

I added a piece of .080 to the top of the sleeper like the high tops have just for something different.

It will have Turbo wing on it also.

Turbo wings came from Eric at P&P Resin

The rear deck is a test run of one I will be selling also, the rear bumper has Aluminum rings for it.

The frame will be loaded with Stainless and Aluminum parts.

Fuel Tanks, Battery box's, Tool Box's, Big pipe's.

The tires have been detailed with small files to look like the Pete rim's, smooth lug nut and center cap covers and valve stems.

Stuffed with foam to fit the rims right.

Not perfect, but there still nice looking.

This is just mock up, still have to tweak some things to get the stance I want, but its coming along just fine.

And it will be painted my favorite color mirror finished black.

It will be pulling a racing trailer that I got from good ol JT on here detailed up a little bit, loaded with a, well I'll keep that a secret for now ;) but it will be bad and black also B)DSC07872_zpse39d1ba2.jpgDSC07878_zps78c1379a.jpgDSC07879_zpsb1623ca1.jpgDSC07871_zps7716bc4b.jpg

Yeah, Buddy, that rear end looks pretty awesome.....I might be interested in that, as well....Truck is looking fantastic....Love the sleeper lights.....I've been seeing those around town, lately, and have been wanting to do the same on something....And the wheels came out great, in my opinion....That was a cool idea....I'm gonna have to try that, myself.....Can't wait to see what you put on this, next....

God bless you, too, Man....

Thanks for the comments everyone.

To busy with building and selling Airline's to work on anything.

Packing and shipping that takes more time.

I'm going to have to make a build day I guess. LOL

God Bless
