Thanks Freddy and the bed does look good on the MACK but it will still go on the Freightliner and the MACK will be a heavy haul tractor. Here are some small update pics.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Thanks guys the grill was made by Heavy Metal (Joe's Metal shop). I am very happy with his work :D and glad he is a member of our forum.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Travis, looks real nice. I bet it'll bring even more life once you lay some paint down.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

I regret letting go of that body more and more with each new post of yours Travis, LOL.:D

But there's no way in **** I could've done it justice like you have....glad to see it went into some hands that could really transform it toward the look of what a Bulldog should be.

Great work thus far,
-Alex

Thanks fellas I appreciate the kind words.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Here are some updated pic's the cab is painted and I am not real happy with it but I am gonna live with it.:( On the hard lines like where the fender meets the hood and the ribs on top of the cab I think I laid the clear on to heavy and it left heave build up with tiny bubbles in it. I tried some up close pics but the metallic in the paint makes it look worse than it does in person. Well enough talk here it is.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

I bet your being way too critical, I think you were right - black is great on this one. Can't wait to see it all done up.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Hard to see any of that in the photo's Travis, but it looks good from what I can see.

Chris some of us just can't stand almost perfect. Could it be that Travis is getting a little OCD..

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

A little OCD you obviosly don't know me too well yet I repainted the back pannel on my green king 6 times and I am still not 100% happy but some times you have to use the 5ft rule. Look at it from 5ft and if some one is closer than that and picking it apart tell them to back the hec up.:D

Travis

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

the mack grill is killer looking now that the truck is painted.....not that it didn't look good befor

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Nothin less than amazing Travis. Truck looks great and with all that metallic it should hide those bubbles well. I have a sugguestion though if you really wanna hide the defects. Get it dirty lol. :p

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Killer truck Travis! I couldn't find any bad spots or bubbles. It really looks good to me. :D

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Hi
Who ist the Producer of the Cab?

mfg Raffael

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Best Mack to date i seen. Keep the updates coming.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Wow. Looks good Travis. Your gonna need an enclosed trailer to haul your fleet to Indy this year. I really like the Mack.

Ben

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

I guess I could use my 24ft Featherlite but I would have to put in the side covers.:p:D

Travis

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Man she's looking purdy Travis. As for the paint...looks great from here. Like my pop used to say..."a blind man on a galloping horse would never notice the difference"... :D Joe

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

I want that Mack Travis!

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

It is not for sale!:p Search this forum and see how many more you find and I bet you will have a hard time finding the other 2 on here and I know they are not for sale either. Don't take it personal they are just hard to find all most impossible. Maybe some one will see this and have one they will part with but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Travis

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

I know. :( But couldn't hurt to ask. I think you're doing a great job on her. Its a "special" truck. Don't see many of them. Great work on her Trav.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Thanks Will and since there aren't many of them I have decided to sand it down and paint it again this is just one truck I want to be as good as I can possibly make it.

Travis

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

You're very welcome Travis! I hope you get her just the way you want her. These trucks are just like babies. You pamper n nurture them. Just because we don't agree on cars, don't mean we can't be friends:). I really like your work. A lot of hard work and determination. Keep up the great work!:D

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Thanks Will and hec what fun would it be if we all agreed about everything, being different is what makes us who we are.

Travis

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Yup, as long as it all in good fun--who cares? If I wanted to argue, I'd go find my wife!! :). Great work on the truck, Ttyl. Take care, Will.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

I know it's a pain to redo - but I know you'll be happier about it.

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

lookin great

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Sweet setup! Almost couldn't tell between the 1:1 and the model! :D

Re: MACK Heavy hauler
 

Here is a small update since the repaint. I still need to make the exhaust brackets, locker style headache rack, deck plates, and rear light plate.

I might have had that body in my pocession before you even knew about it :D... I had been bugging Alex for close to two years to sell it to me and in on false swoop you snatched it up @ indy :confused:


Looking real good:cool:
