Superpeterbilt Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) With all of the Diamond Reos currently being built, I just realized that Ive never posted this one. Its a box stock DR kit with a dump trailer modified to be frameless. I built most of it almost ten years ago. Until recently it was sitting on the shelf about 95% complete. I finally gave it the finishing touches. Its not perfect, but it was a milestone for me at the time. Edited January 3, 2015 by Superpeterbilt
towman1271 Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Don't know what u think perfect is..but this is pretty darn close if not perfect to me... Awesome job & amazing work converting that trailer to frameless
72 Charger Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I realy like that Terry .Please dont take this the wrong way but I think it would look even better if you sanded the treds on your tyres.
Tesla Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Beautiful builds and kudos to the frameless dump conversion...great work on all!
Old Buckaroo Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 10 Years ago ? That is one nice looking truck ! (the trailers and Reo load rate pretty high also)
Superpeterbilt Posted January 3, 2015 Author Posted January 3, 2015 Thanks guys. This is probably the only kit Ive ever built box stock. The only added part is the stack.
bismarck Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Good lookin rig!!! Man, I gotta get moving on mine...
kilrathy10 Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) That's some good stuff, Terry.....I like that dumper as a frameless.....Needs some kitty litter, though...... Great job on that DR, too....I have yet to build one of those.... Every once in a while I'll build something box stock....And then about a year later, stretch it, or something.....

Chuck Most Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Maybe not perfect, but how many working rigs are? Still a nice looking DR.
Rigzndiesel Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Very, very nice! I like the frameless dump too! I see the Apollo 116 road tractor spent it's last days playing in the dirt... Nice work on all the builds! I like them. Jeff
tbill Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 good looking stuff Terry, you build some really cool looking rigs.
disabled modeler Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I like the old school trucks there underrated in my opinion....nothing beats the look of brute force work trucks to me...nice!
Superpeterbilt Posted January 10, 2015 Author Posted January 10, 2015 Thanks guys! Thats the way I like 'em. No Fluff, All Tuff.
