Re: Project TOP GUN..
Hey guys got some done this weekend on my buddy's new rig. Big Thanks to Russ at The Bone Yard for getting me a floor so fast so I could get back at building.. Thanks Much Russ.
So I was able to get the tranny mounted and make the other scale drive shaft for it.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/006-17.jpg Also got the stainless plates for the MFU steps cut and I got the steps mounted too.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/001-18.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/002-24.jpg With the cab I got the lowered look in the front I wanted and got the steps in there nice and tight. The front of the truck is lowered a little not the cab lowered. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/003-23.jpg And now more custom parts from some of are great Vendors here on the board. The truck is getting these custom Hydro tanks made by IHbuilder. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/004-22.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/005-21.jpg And here is a little extra i have been working on 1/2 bull pipes and I got them all dialed in here is one mounted all up. The are made from brass and machine bent so the bends are perfect and then chromed.. What do you guys think... http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/009-11.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/008-12.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...wboy/011-8.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/007-12.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...wboy/010-7.jpg |

Thanks Much Mike.. I really like the look of your shocks on the truck it really cleans up the frame rails and makes it look so much more scale.. Been running long Hrs again this week I have been working a little each night so ill get updates very soon.. |
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Hey TC, is this thing gonna have a sunroof in it? Now that'll be sweet! :)
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..

|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Cool, don't see many scale KW's. Take care.
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Howdy Cowboy,
your rig look great so far. The pipes are fantastic - could be something for my King Hauler Daycab. If you build another pair of this i send you my adress :D:D:D |
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Cool, a KW, this should be good! Look forward to seeing how you do the bodywork
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Great looking truck TC.. I love the low look in the front, its going to look like a southern gravel hauler and them are bad looking..Keep up the great work..
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Nice smooth looking truck. Those tanks are also a thing of beauty. Can't wait to see them installed and how she sits.
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Solid good start to another fine truck. I like the extra bend in the pipes. A bit too long for my taste, but I'm ussually way out there in left field anyhow.
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Thanks Much Tyler and Chris..
Chris I agree the turn out is to long I have to cut that down more to normal length.. |
Re: Project TOP GUN..
I like the length. Looks like a bunk truck converted into a daycab. That is what I did to my 1:1 and I have about 9 feet from the front of My wagon to the back of My cab.:D
|
Re: Project TOP GUN..
Thanks Much Jessy! You going to bring this truck to a show this year or WHAT!
Ok back to the build I got my tank straps in today but the fuel tank metal brackets did not show so Ill have to wait till tomarrow.. But I did get the deck plate done and I am making the 5th wheel mount right now.. Here is the plate.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/002-25.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy/001-19.jpg |
