Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Tasty looking lights! Are there lenses in the bumper for those oval or elongated marker lights?

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thanks much RCT

Nate I had Russ mill lenses that fit the bumper when he made it...

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thanks. Very cool Paul. The elongated lenses are a nice touch!

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

The lights are looking good Paul. This build just keeps getting better!

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Great looking truck Paul... I am waiting to see how you do the air cleaner light....


Wayne

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thanks truckmaker

Hey Wayne me too still working on that one

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

You've really nailed this one paul, absolutely an outstanding job mate,
wish i had the talent you have and the know how:D:D
Cheers Lucas:jaw:

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thank you very much Lucas..

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Looking good Paul, I agree with truckmaker, it just keeps getting better. The lights are awesome, and neat job on the wiring.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Paul do you just wire all the marker light to a battle switch or do you just runn them all to a light controller like the mfu or servonaut?

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

As always.....A clean Build !

Nicely Done !


Alfy

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thanks much Keith..

Thanks very much Nick.. The owner wanted all the chicken lights to run off one switch truck and trailer so all of them will run off the battle switch this time. The extra cab lights will run off the mfu..

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Such a great build through and through.....but I also want to commend you on such clean and neatly routed electrical for the chicken lights! Seeing that is such therapy for a psycho like me who suffers so much from OCD!!! LOL

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

I love how the bumper came out :D its almost like it was planed that way, lol :p :lol:

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

so beautiful :jaw: lot of homemade lot of work


I wonder, where you found lights bulbs on your bull guard?

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thanks much Alec and I feel the same as you with wiring when laid out nice it is art work on its own,,

I know right you do things enuff times it will come out right..:lol:

Thanks very much... The bull guard if you look back the lenses are milled out then back lit with 3 mm LEDs..


Ill get some picks up soon I am finishing up the Air Cleaner light bars then Ill get some picks..

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Nice clean wiring Paul.:cool: I don't know about you but, for some reason I love doing wiring!:lol:
It'll be bitter sweet when hot iron is done for sure :(:).

Mario

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Looks awesome Paul, great work man!

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Outstanding Paul!! You never disappoint when you put a truck together. Again, top notch build.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

One of your best builds.... Paul...


Wayne

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Really nice work on this one, Paul. The lights are great. This truck has more lights on it than any of your past builds, I'm guessing? I love a truck all lit up. Will there be some photos of it hooked to a grain trailer at some point? I think a cattle trailer would look great behind this one too.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Wow...really looks like the real thing....love the detail work! I like how the pusher axel fits in perfect.....

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Turned out amazing. Ready for the next one? ;)

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
 

Thanks much Mike..

Thank much Buddy..

Thank You Wayne

Thanks Nate.. The real truck wears many coats Wesley has a tri-axle belly dump,tri-axle bull rack,spread step, detach lowboy, tall side hopper, spread reefer so yes we will get some picks with it with my Bull rack and belly dump but I am building a Hopper bottom to match his hopper as we speak so there will be some picks..

Thanks Much L Mack

LOL yeah I guess I am one step ahead of you already anyways..:D

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
