Nice truck Rod! I like how you kept the King Hauler look, blended in your own touches and came up with a truck that looks real on it's own. Also the lowboy rocks!

Thanks for all the comments guys...

The project is never done!! I finally got around to cutting and bending the stainless for the catwalk. It really doesn't seem like much of an update, but somehow it took most of the afternoon! Here are a couple of pix:

Looking to get a Scania fifth wheel mount and some fiberglass fenders to finish the rear end off...
