That looks incredibly cool Steve ! Great color choice, and will look even better 2 toned..

The only thing about it that I see that I don't like......... is the fact that we can't see it. Buy yourself a dang camera already !! LMAO

Wow. That's all I can say Steve. Love the new photos. Whatever you did to take the latest photos, be it a tripod or block of wood, it worked. With the trailer, she's going to be a killer looking combo. I can't wait to see it finished. Two tone will be incredible!

thank you Nate , when I'm sick I shake even more so I have to learn to rest the cam on some thing . Also take the pics outside when I can also have the shuter on delay so when i push the button you don't notice the shake . I actually have the detachable to pull with it thats why the sliding 5th wheel . Have to have it back to clear the rear of the truck . The single drop looks better slid fwd . I'll tell ya just like real life for me the longer the easier to back up I still can't hitch a short single axle to a tag in 1 shot but my long tandem 1 shot not even lined up .
God I hope I get over this flippin cold soon to much to do

IHSteve

Very unique and original build, the whole thing looks tremendous but I especially like the tag axle, very realistic. The colour sets it all off and the metal front grille is very well done too.

The outdoor pics are much better. If that is the same camera used for the inside shots, then definitely use a perch/tripod and the delay. Truck looks fantastic.
thanks Matt I still remember the tips you all gave me on GT

Your picture taking abilities have improved a thousand fold Steve, it's great to see clear photos of your unique talent of model engineering. You are truly in a realm of your own with your abilities of a 100% scratchbuilt model building. Well done Sir!

Great looking truck. Well done! Love the color and lift axle. I have a suggestion: How about posting pics and info on that wheel drilling fixture you mentioned in the tools section?

thank you Scott , not as heavy as the 9370 dump , w/the steel lift axle and my heavier then average wheels , prob just a tad heavier then a conventional tamiya tractor .
