Pete tow truck.
 
I picked up a new rolling chassis with one of Johns Pete cabs at the Central Plains show this weekend. I am thinking I will make it a work truck and beat it around a little.

Travis is the sleeper roof lower than the cab or is something not bolted down?

Dang Travis it took you no time to swap out some wheels and get this truck up on the bench. I can't wait to see where you go with it and hope to see it working soon. Also see you ended up with my leftover aeromax cab too. Good luck with that body I'm pretty sure it's been all around the world atleast once. Please give it a home and beat on it too while your at it.

Nice looking rig. As RockN was saying I see an aeromax that I believe was once mine before he had it I could be wrong though...if not It has made it all over the US and Canada.

Thanks guys and I do have a plan for the Aeromax cab. Here are some pix of what I started before but the truck was used to build the service truck instead. Oddly enough the cab is almost in the same shape and color of what I Started with last time.

Now I will have to use the B/S/T to see if I can find the rest of the parts for the cab.

Travis that video is killer. This truck took a major turn between the two of us. I love the new boom and drives in the back. Can't wait to see it with the rear body work.

Great video. Nice work on the screw drives. Speed looked great with no lack of lifting power. Good job.
