Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Donnie built some new shelves & needed something to display on them new babies.
So Chris & I are going to see if we can give him something worth putting on one of them.
I'll post a pic of the one we're shootin for,as soon as I figure it out.
Got the cab back from Chris the other day,& let'me tell you what! He knocked this baby right out of the ball field!:eek: Take a look.

Nize....HUH? & the best part is it's not even done yet.:D He had to send it to me so I can to do the easy part.The chassis & the goodies that hang on it. Of coarse there made out of my favorite model'in material(Aluminium).

What a pain tryin to get the cab to sit right. Cutting the floor pan & makin fit the modded cab was no walk in the park. It took me two hrs just for that little task.BUT! She sits just ducky on the chassis.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

dam I really like the grill on there

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

+1 that grill looks great

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

This is going to be a great truck good job...

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Give it up Freddie...who did the grill work?? Nice work fellas. Gonna be a good one.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

The aluminum grill makes the truck, that thing is gonna be great.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

That's going to be a beauty, when it's all said and done. The cab looks accurate and the grill seals the deal. Very nice.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Freddy I have the cab steps - pm me the length of the opening. Thanks

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Nice work on the cab, Izzy. I am sure Freddy's chassis will match the cab. That grill is out of site!!!

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Thanks y'all on the cab work- as for thegrill - had to do it twice - got a bit ahead of myself.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Does your wife know you are doing this instead of overtime:rolleyes::rolleyes: Twice???:rolleyes: I thought you engine-eers didn't make mistakes like the rest of us mere mortals??


Just have to poke you in the ribs now and then!!:D:D

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Looking nice.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
 

Engineers make mistakes - we just hide it better.

Re: Izzy & FGD join forces for Reeves
