onlyhestandshere Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 This is my first attempt at building a big rig ever and why not try to do it as custom as possible..it's been stretched 2 inches and dropped just about as Low as it can go..currently working on the deck area and about to try and build my own custom fenders Quote
Petetrucker07 Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Nice start. This is gonna be good. Quote
kilrathy10 Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) This is looking pretty good....Especially for a first attempt.....The chassis looks good....The drop is sensational....Should make for a great model.....You may have to chop a little off that bumper, though..... Any ideas on a color?? Edited October 24, 2015 by kilrathy10 Quote

Any ideas on a color?? yep I've been trying to hold that off for long as possible untill I can cut a little straighter.I've been thinking of a dark blue of some sort.similar to this one Quote
kilrathy10 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 That would be one sweet looking paint job.....I like that dumper, too.....Gives me an idea..... Quote
Petetrucker07 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) That is a nice truck. You've definitely got an eye for the custom trucks. I have the issue of 10-4 Magazine that it was the cover feature. If you don't already know, tenfourmagazine.com is an excellent source for custom truck inspiration and refrence pics.Here's a link to the article on this truck.http://www.tenfourmagazine.com/2013/11/cover-features/bilt-to-be-noticed/ Edited October 25, 2015 by Petetrucker07 Quote
