Looks Great! -
These trucks were used by CF to push trucks over Donner pass in the snow. I will start with the AMT kit. It has two options; a 63” daycab or a 86” sleeper cab. My reference truck appears to have the 72” cab. So that is where I am starting. 63” cab 86” cab: New 72” cab:

This one started with a Superboss kit. It is powered by a twin turbo 8v-92.

Looks like a cool project!

This began with a Ford Louisville dump. Cab by Dan, scratch built 6v-53 Detroit Diesel engine.

Thanks Chuck! I didn't realize it until a few days ago. -
This one is built curbside, but I did rough together a 3116 Cat for it.

Sorry for the late response, I haven't been around for a while. Life has been busy. I don't remember the paint color. I'm pretty sure that I used Duplicolor in a spray can though. The stripes are decals from the kit. The air tank came from the AMT R-Model Mack. The 2 hole Budds came from Double Take Replicas, sadly they are no longer in business. Jamie at moluminum.com offers excellent 2 hole Budds though. I did convert it from 4 headlights to 2 headlights. If you have any more questions let me know.

Thanks guys!!! Thanks Charles! The aluminum is just a little heavier gauge than those aluminum throw away pans that you get at the grocery store. I've used for several things, including a leak in my roof.
