Polished aluminum always looks good, and more so with a sharp paint job like that! It's going to be a looker, when all said and done.

Thanks! Chrome is my favorite color!

After seeing Keith's dumper I decided to change things up a bit. I ordered a hood from shapeways. [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...ps636408cc.jpg[/IMG] Raised the roof. [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...pse91e912e.jpg[/IMG] Still have to move axle back.Thinking about cutting 1/2 inch off the top of the wrecker bed. [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...psff906cab.jpg[/IMG] Gonna make the black cab a day cab. [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...psa04b12d8.jpg[/IMG]

Small update. Finally had some time.Prepped the hood from shapeways,it was alot more work then I was expecting. Decided to go with white and red.Not sure on the color of pinstripes yet. Gold,silver or black,or a combination of two. [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...ps60780a50.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7aa40ceb.jpg[/IMG] Cab and fairing in white waiting to dry so I can mask and shoot the red.

Re: KW tri-axle wrecker
 

Hood looks pretty good to me....the 3d plastic is a pain to get ready for paint...

Re: KW tri-axle wrecker
 

Wow! That hood is looking great Fred! Nice job, I can't wait to see this come together. Have you decided on colour scheme or pattern for the wrecker body?

Re: KW tri-axle wrecker
 

Thanks! Prepping and painting the 3d stuff is with out a doubt a pain. But its worth it to have more options.
Thanks Mario! I have a couple ideas. Guess I'll decide when the cab is done. Everything is subject to change look what happened to the other cab. Lol.

Re: KW tri-axle wrecker
 

Well got the rest of the cab painted and striped, went with gold and black stripes. Wrecker bed soon to follow. [IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/...psa212290f.jpg[/IMG]
