Wow, I could drool all over this one. I think this is my favorite truck, out of all the ones I have seen you post, from your collection. The paint is incredibe, and I love needle nose Peterbilts. If you get that aluminum grille machined up, and installed, it's going to be one of the best looking trucks on this forum. I really like that visor too. This truck is so awesome.

Small update. Been stocking up on parts this winter, havent had time to work on much. Now having more free time Ill be posting more. Got a set of Steves wheels for it and a box trailer. Painted the under carriage to match the truck. Gonna scratch build a reefer, get an icc bumper and put some mudflaps on. Gonna keep it simple.
