Gary Chase

Wasn’t sure where this build was going but after some thought and accumulated parts. Well a newer style log truck is the build…….so far. The red Kenworth is the neighbors truck and is the inspiration. They run the single wide tires all the way around, air lift axles everywhere. I got a bunch of reference pictures and measurements. The beds are 26 ft long. 
got the beds roughed out. 

getting to work on the trailer.

Few more things to finish but gettin close

Took all afternoon to modify the skirts for the exhaust to route under the truck, build and detail one skirt. 

Making progress, can see the finish line on this build. Got to finish the skirts, put together the mirrors, rear deck and air line hookups.

Good looking truck.

Thank you

Getting some detailing done on the cab and hood. Repainted the sleeper again 

Pretty wild build, that took some imagination, well done. 

Finally getting back to work on the truck, new grill in, glass in, interior done, exhaust assembled and ready to install. Got to adjust how the cab sits on the frame. Sleeper is getting repainted. 

Welcome, post up some pics of your build

Outstanding build

Trailer done, now finish truck

Love it! I've always liked the "late model" Paystar hood design.

Thanks, agree, it’s a good look. Might do another one with just a tandem. 

Pics with the trailer I just finished. 

Getting the load strapped down using a photo etched kit. 

Love the rustic look, well done

Building lifting clevis for the tank from aluminum craft wire, next print some lifting decal
