Travis that body work is killer. I agree with Paul I love that curved hood and the front bumper is a great piece. The stretch with the third axle really sets this truck off nicely. Keep it up.

Thanks Tim but this cab is actually just something I made up. I kinda mixed the look of a T800 and a W9L with a Jones hood to come up with what I think would be a neet heavy haul KW.

Yes they are and to me they look better than the Fulda's there is just something about them that is not right.

Well here is an update for you girls. A couple pics and a long boring video. I am definitely going to have to get some faster beetle motors but these are the one I had to use for now. The truck sitting on the bed is a stock length King Hauler chassis.







Click here for the video. I would ship to about 2:30 in the video unless you are really board.

Thanks for looking.
Travis
