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

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.....:D 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

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.

im definitely going to check it out.I'm very new to big rigs in general saw a really cool one at my job a few months ago and it's just sparked an interest to try and build one so the more reference pictures the better I can figure out how to make the next one look!
