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.

    Love your box collection -- you could make a room divider out of them if you had about two or three more 😲

    My room just keeps filling up, been wanting to build a glass display case to store my builds, maybe keep them clean longer.

  3. Been collecting parts most the summer, so yesterday I laid out all the partsIMG_1993.thumb.jpeg.539c59fed465b66a4882ecfaa0777c49.jpeg

    today I measured out the frame length and got the frame rails together, will need to trim off about a quarter of an inch……..maybe😉

    I did take the time to add a couple Craftsman toolboxes this summer under my bench to organize a bit better
