Mopar - D Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 Working on the exhaust piping I found the air tanks I mounted interfered with the pipes so I have relocated them. Here's a mock up to check clearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted May 30, 2016 Author Share Posted May 30, 2016 Worked on fitting all the glass in was able to use the glass from the Mack kit for the back and side windows. For the front Windshield I used a paper template ( only 3 try's) to get it to fit good. I also scratch built supports for the stacks.

10thumbs Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Hi Dan, those wheels really look even better now that you have color on the cab, they just compliment each other. Classy looking dumper, just the way a Brockway ought to look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 This is really my kind of truck! My only complaint is that I don't have one to build (L.O.L.). I've always been a fan of the Brockways. They were built for work! You are sure doing a great job on this one! I really like the yellow!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 Thanks Michael I'm going to go with a chrome radiator grill and the white insert in front. Thanks GinoBrian thanks that's what I'm going for with this build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Thanks for the continued comments guys I do appreciate them Even with all the rain we have been getting here in Houston I've been able to get some more painting done. I used BMF on the radiator grill and chrome powder on the rest. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with the fuel tanks yet either black, chrome or aluminum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10thumbs Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 OoooKaaay. Guys, we have a cool looking dump truck here.Dan, my truck knowledge is lacking, when I read black fenders I thought, "oh now, how could you"?Now I see it and this rig is really classy in my opinion. Great color choices. I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy rich Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I think that's looking great Dan I'm gonna have to try that chrome powder, for the tanks I like the thought of black I think it would look the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 Thanks Michael Rich thanks I like the chrome powder and have ordered there steel and gray powders. The cab came with the metal grill that will look like this when I get to where I'm ready glue it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
