It was nice seeing your truck in person Keith, there is so much detail to it. Very nice work. I didn't realize that the stack mount was made out of brass, nice. The metal work for the rear view mirrors is a nice touch too.

The bed looks great Reg and you did a fantastic job with the screw drive setup. Makes me want to build another dump truck for myself.

Looks great man! really looks like a mean old dog.

Think it would look great with some old school spokes on her. Most of those DM Mack's were heavy spec.

Thanks Wayne, best operating truck I've built to date. Drives smooth at scale speeds, sounds awesome with the new SM3 in it and the bed, what can I say it's one foe Reggie's, he's the man when it comes to dump boxes.

Thank Lynn, lol. I plan on using this truck so it will get its share of nicks and scratches I'm sure.

Yeah, I've got an issue! Of all the trucks I've built the majority are orange or have orange in them. Even my Hot Rod Nova is orange, lol.

Re: Mack DM800 Dump
 
Keith clearly has an Orange fettish.... its so bad that Ive made up an Orange and named it after him and 50% of my paint inventory is made up of "Keith Orange"!!!!!! but all jokes aside, this is by far one of the NICEST well built, well though out Dump Trucks I have laid my eyes on and got the oppurtunity to see up close and personal.... the pictures do not do it justice what so ever.... It runs and sounds as good as it looks and the **** thing can move a house! No detail was spared, and the sad part about it, is Keith is still trying to figure out what else to do too it..... lmao... it never ends...... Great Job BUD!
