I would think if the cab was about done yesterday that you should have it on a rolling chassis now so were are the picks Travy..

I'm definitely tuned in on this build!

Not to burst your bubble, Ed had a blue knight hauler daycab dump at Indy 2007. The truck was dismantled after the show, I believe. I couldn't find any pics...

Rod I would like to see a pic of it to see how some one else has cut the cab down because I have done this one completely different than my single axle.

Thanks
Travis

I'm beginning to wonder if Travis, Freddy, and Paul live in a Tamiya factory. There seems to be no end to the parts. Everyday it seems like they start a new project and just happen to have all the parts there... Yet it takes me 15 days to get a front axle assembly.

I'm kinda jelous!!!

But other than that, it's looking good Travis, I like the way you did the back of the cab,

-Mike

Well here is how I go about building the chassis, first dump all the parts bags in a bowl, then start building. No I am not Joking.

Stuff every nut, bolt,screw, and parts bag for a Knight Hauler is in the bowl. After a dozen or so trucks you know where the parts go.
