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.

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.

This is looking real nice! You picked a great choice of colors.

              X's 2 i agree with Dennis. I also think that painting the fenders black is the way to go .

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.

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!!!

Thanks Michael I'm going to go with a chrome radiator grill and the white insert in front. 

 

Thanks Gino

Brian thanks that's what I'm going for with this build

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

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.

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

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.
