Thanks for the comments guys. It's nice to finally be close to having this truck done.
rcman, that paint is testors fiery orange. I got it at a local craft store here in MN. It's a lacquer paint in a rattle can.

Nick, the frame is 26.5" and the truck will look like a Florida orange grove, nothing but orange

Little bit of an update.
Got your fenders mounted up again John. I used 2mm hardware instead of the 3mm I used before.




Painted the inside of the pipes to look like there is soot build up.

And added some bare metal foil to the door hinges, door handles, cab steps and front vents on the cab. Also painted the window gaskets flat black to simulate rubber gaskets.



Hope you enjoy. Thanks for looking.

Loving the fender mounts Can't wait to get mine.
A lot of people hate BMF, but lord knows i've used my fare share of it through the years lol.
Nice touch on the louvers and painting the gaskets.

Nice job Jesse, Big John

Turned out really nice. I like the use of the bare metal foil, haven't seen or heard about that stuff in years.
