Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Hey kaf the truck looks even better in person. I saw it at the eclc show last weekend, I wanted to see you and introduce myself but I wasn't sure who u were LOL. I only came for half an hour to buy parts and check the trucks out and then I split.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

This rig is awesome.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Keith,
Pictures do this rig no justice it is one of my favorite combo units out there was a pleasure meeting you at richie's show hope to see you at another meet. Awsome job.

TONY

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Bricknick, thanks for the comment. Yeah I was looking for you as well, always good to meet local guys in the hobby.

[QUOTE=RodneyO;90416]This rig is awesome.[/QUOT

Thanks Rodney

Thanks again Tony, it was great meeting you as well. And it was great seeing your rigs, I've been admiring them in all the show pics and to finally see them was a treat.

Keith

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Keith, you've created and built one of the best truck n trailer combos by far:cool:
This one is a keeper right? You can't part with this beauty:eek: that would be like Reg selling his 850 Kenworth:eek::eek:.... Ain't gonna happen! Lol

Great looking rig, can't wait to see it in person someday.

Mario

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Beautiful combo...Will we get to see it at Indy?

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Thanks Mario, I like this truck better than any other rig I have built, buuuutttt I never say never. LOL. We'll see.

Thanks Sue, I am going to try to make it to Indy this year, but it's right in between two weeks in cape cod and a week in Mexico this year so it will be tight, but I'm going to try. It would be great to see your trucks and Mario's as well.

Keith

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Thanks Benny, builders like you keep guys like me always trying to catch up and build something nice.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Keith,
On Ebay search DCP on page 9 or 10 as well as page 24 or 25 is a replica of your tractor in 1/64 scale did not know if you had one or were interested. One is hooked to a tanker the other to a dump trailer.

TONY

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Thanks Tony, I have one with a dump, may have to get the tanker though.

Added one of Steve's sweet front bumpers full of Lynn's bezels.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Man that looks sweet! Have any lights hooked up in it yet?

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Yes, close to six hundred hooked up and working. All lights work off battle switches and the MFU.

Thanks Keith

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

That bumper looks sweet!!! Love this build !! Awesome job Keith!!

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Thanks Fred, I'm going to try to take some outdoor pics this weekend all lit up.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Wow, just came across this old thread, that is one sweet Pete, is it still cruising around?

any new pics?

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Thanks Paul, I sold this Peterbuilt last year to a guy in Washington. I still have the trailer and since have built a Cascadia to pull it around. I'm also putting together another 379 to pull the trailer.

[IMG]http://i1164.photobucket.com/albums/...7f136dd7d1.jpg[/IMG]

This is last 379 I built for a friend a few weeks ago.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

The tractor really makes the trailer:bounce: Your last 379 build is awesome, too.

Re: Tilt nose 379 Pete triple 3, I hope
 

Ahh yes I recognise that Pete, nice work

Cascadia looks great, the trailer suits a modern Semi like the Freightliner

Keep up the good work!
