Re: my first build
Believe me its not the truck i wanted by any means. The price was right with a radio system so i couldnt pass it up. I am trying to build it to somewhat resemble what some of the bigger construction companys around my area have. I know they dont have any scania's lol but they use single rear freightliners. I cant really explain what im doing but i have a nice idea in my head of what i am trying to do lol. As far as the custom work, it isnt bad ive always been good at making things with my hands. My race car is all hand built stuff for the most part, the wheel tubs, 4 link,etc.

Re: my first build
ok i got some work done on the bed frame tonight. would have gotten more done but realized i do not have most of my tools at my house as they are still at my parents house. i am using brass and in the photos it looks like i am only making a flat bed but hopefully thursday i will be able to finish the bed frame box off. i am planning on making a box frame for the bed boxs and using pins to hold the box panels on, jus like used in drag race slot cars and winged cars.

Re: my first build
also tryed out the new tires i bought from smallhaul. rockcrushers. now all i have to fiqure out is how to modify the rear wheels so that i can run just single rear tires instead of duallys. i am looking at another set of wheels but will wait until i am ready to convert to 4x4 and fiqure out how to modify those wheels on the front to use 4x4.

Re: my first build
i have gotten a little more tiny things done tonight. i ran out of brass stock and am waiting for the rest to come in the mail. i had enough to build the uprights for the box frame/support. i also made a stack....weather or not its in the location of the actual trucks exhaust or if it even looks right. i started to make a headache rack but i dont think it looks right so i may end up starting over from scratch. i would post pics but i used my go pro camera and it is not letting me upload the photos
