Great work Chase, do you mind sharing what you used for the sub structure? Awesome idea with the trash bag!

I used 4 pieces of styrene plastic I beam to make the trailer frame

[vincen47]

Very nice work. What did you use for the air cleaner lights?

[Chaser]

Thanks guys! I use .010 plastic sheets and punched round lights out of it,painted them and then put a small dab of clear apoxy on them

[Tesla]

Awesome build!

[D. Battista]

Very nice build...!

[Chaser]

Thanks guys!

[BigBad]

Awesome! Love the lowered look!, great paint scheme, excellent tarped trailer... Striking looks!

[Cabover Kid]

Wow, now for the armature question of the day, is that all scratch built? Either way, ur an awesome talent!! Thanks for posting, love it!!

[Chaser]

Thank you! The only thing that is from a kit is the cab. Everything else is scratch built or highly modified. Thanks again.

[jekylljr]

just amazing!!!! elite builder

[Danno]

Excellent!

[Modelcollector]

Very nice combo! Do you have pics of the framework under the cover? I would like to do the same with the trash bag but not sure of the framework. Did you use aluminum tubing or styrene and bend to shape?

[Chaser]

It is made out of styrene,here's some pictures.

A bit off topic comment. That flat top KW peekin back there, you still workin on it?

[Chaser]

Yes sir. Been a slow one

[Petetrucker07]

Cant wait to see it. Im guessin its gonna be stellar. Im tryin to think of what 1:1 show truck you could be replicating.

[Chaser]

thats why its been slow, havent found one I really like. it seems when i fine one, i find another than another. It might just end up being about three put into one.

[Petetrucker07]

Thats my problem, why i havent built any of the 379s and 389s i have waiting. Cant decide whos truck i want i to build. I at least built Trevor Hardwicks cabover, the redone version. I may try 1 of James Davis' trucks, really like how low they sit. But then i go to a truck show or the new issue of 10-4 comes out and changes my mind.

[Chaser]

Yup we have the same problem.lol

[Apriliadan]

Great job

[Chaser]

Thank you

Nice job. I'm not sure how you could get the arch, maybe a little heat might work, but this one is a little too far along to try that! It might be something to experiment with on a later project though. If you are going with the "heavy load" story, I'd drop that front axle down or DOT will be on you like bears (Pun intended) to honey!!
