I've seen circle cutting things at Michaels and hobby lobby as well in the scrap booking area...

WOW time to dust this off a little. Took a few mins to use the nice day out to snap a few outside shots with the new visor today with it hooked up to the lowboy. There are a few more changes yet to be completed on it and hope to have them done in the next week or so.

Enjoy

Thats all for now more updates soon. Hope you like

lovely truck you got there mate

Well it is a out time for those visor shots, kind of nice to be able to ay a little instead of all that work you have been doing lol. Truck looks killer in the sun

Supermario · #**225** 11-11-2012, 02:14 PM

Looks wicked Aaron

you know how much I love this COE and it looks sweet with that lowboy

Great idea to take advantage of the days we have left outside. After the last week of working on the kitchen table, we have some good weather too so it has been nice working in the garage today

Thanks for the update pics!

Looking good Aaron, love it with the Lowboy and the load.

glorydays24 · #**227** 11-11-2012, 05:39 PM

Aaron, every time I see this globe, I fall in love with it all over again.

And I noticed you added hubs to the rear wheels, nice touch.

And you added elbows to the exhaust...it's about time, lol.

Now this is just my opinion, and i'm not knocking anything about this ride. But you might add some of Steve's great wheels...just a thought.

Well i said there would be more so i wont say anything ill let you figure it out

Maybe ill use the other light bucket for "brights" but i dont like that the MFU doesnt let you flash them or anything since id use the "fog lights" for them... So what do ya think??

Thanks again Russ!!!

Hey Aaron the truck is looking great. I really like the outside shots and the inside dark shots with the lights in it as well. This truck just gets better each time I see it.

petermoblin · #**237** 11-13-2012, 02:48 PM

Those new goodies look sweet. That truck/trailer combo looks great also!

Supermario · #**238** 11-13-2012, 04:24 PM

As always Aaron, finding ways to make this truck better with each addition. I love the new grill and I know why you got it

your trying to distract our eyes from the mess of wires I see in the cab?

lol

Mario

plow jockey · #**239** 11-13-2012, 05:30 PM

Thanks Buddy!! the Cat is a Bruder Toy (on my list for conversion) You can get them from bruder or lately i have seen them at Menards in the toy aisle this year. I bought mine from Russ at Indy as i had been wanting one for a load on the lowboy until one of my other projects is complete.

Thanks for looking everyone!! More updates again in a week or 2..
