Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Looking good. I'm diggin' the fenders and headlights! Man, those Servonaut units are very nice. I'm hoping to get one too. You didn't pick the turbocharged engine sound effects though? Nice video footage.

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Looks good man!

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Sweet looking truck! Looks like you have a good time with all that.

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

This thing came out great...nice job.

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Black and yellow you can never go wrong with these 2 colors...I like they break up with the striping and looks great on the fenders too...

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"

It's a very nice rig you have gotten yourself!

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Wow, that turned out great! Are you going to paint the draft arms, landing gear to match the truck?

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Nice looking combo JD ! What did you use for Cummins emblems?

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Love the frameless dump, need to get one but would prefer it to be 34' tri axle for our region but your trailer look awesome with the Peterbilt.....

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Perfect love the black and yellow. Nice Rig

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Outstanding, love that tarp!!

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

Got a video of my truck dumping at the PFB meet, now the trailer matches the truck :D Enjoy

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

You did an awesome job on this rig all the way through. Beautiful truck man!

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

I've told you in the past how much I love that truck. Every time I see it I remember what my favorite RC truck is. I must have it! Would you ever consider selling? .... I'm sorry , I just had to ask....lol

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

looks great!! for some odd reason i keep thinking that
your sleeper looks like a 36'' bunk then i checked my stock
KH sleeper and its a five footer. has to be the black paint

Re: Pete 379 Flat Top 48"
 

I second this question...so please keep me in mind if the thought ever crosses:D
