That’s a fantastic build, well done

Sharp looking truck, like the single axle flat bed. 

That looks really good, well done.

This is a mind blower, a no rules build …. Outstanding result with tons of freedom to use fresh ideas. The color is pure beauty. I would be proud to drive this down the highway. A real head turner. A one of a kind. Fabulous results. 

Thank you very much

I like all those paint jobs, the white, gold and orange is really cool. Not sure what happened, but it’s cool. 

Trailer is coming together nicely, I assume the truck and trailer will share the same paint scheme. 

Good to see progress on such a cool build

Such a great build and spot on weathering 

That finish is so realistic, very well done.

Thank you

Good to see ya gettin some bench time. Build is looking the part. 

That’s a good lookin truck

Just seen your GMC wrecker build, she’s a beautiful build, curious to see where this build goes. 

Any progress on this stunning build?

That is a great color scheme, really makes that truck pop, well done. 

You got some serious skills, love this build. 

Watched you build this beautiful rig, well done sir. 

I haven’t posted anything here in awhile, be nice to see some activity again. So here is my latest completion. This started out as the AMT Autocar A64 B tractor kit. Stretched frame, added lift axle, fenders, later model turbo Cummins with larger turbo and plumbed inter cooler, custom mirrors, custom visor, custom dash, some plumbing, hand made exhaust, 10 wheels and on and on.

This thing looks pretty sweet!

Thank you, I have been away from this site for awhile, need to update some stuff. 

Mock-up for fuel tanks and battery boxes. 

Some progress

Can’t wait to see this finished, like where this is going. 

Another mock-up to get exhaust length and look at colors. 

Was looking for an easy build with not very much fabrication and decided on a GMC General ( I have four of those kits) and kit bashing a box from the Ford delivery truck kit. Then I found these decals of a beer company and thought “everybody needs a beer truck on the shelf. I started on this a couple weeks ago , so doing a bit of catch-up. 

a bit of mock-up to get frame length and wheelbase correct. Added one inch ahead of the drive axles and 1.5 inches on the end of the frame, will trim later when I get the lift gate mounted. 

got some paint work done today

the chassis is coming together.
