Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump
 

Thanks for the comments guys! I think its time for an update. I haven't had a lot of time to get the truck done but I got my fuel tank brackets made and got my fuel tanks from Steve. Thanks Steve! I also got my battery box /step mounted. The rivets are done and there is just some fine sanding and the body can be painted. Steve also made the lift axle for me and I got it working so here are some pics, enjoy!

Nice Brian, where did you get the aluminum grill from?

Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump

Thanks Jeremy. I had the grill machined for me. If they go over I may have them made in a larger quantity.
Thanks man! The car in the background is my 67 Cougar.
thanks Trav! I'm gonna do my own box for this one, well I'm gonna at least give it a try!

Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump
 

Thanks for the compliments guys! I started on the body, I'll get some pics up soon. I contacted the body company and was able to get drawings from My original truck. This will help in the scale down procedure.

Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump
 

Brian your trucks are all amazing, this one is coming along nicely aswell. If you are considering do a production run of those Pete front grills count me in for one.

Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump
 

Brian, it's coming together nicely. Any idea what you will do for steps on the fuel tank? Like all your trucks, this one is looking very nice. I can see your modeling skills are getting better and better, with each new truck you add to the fleet.

Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump
 

this truck looks really nice:)
makes me wanna build a US truck myself:D

Re: New build, Pete 357 tri-axle dump
 

Thanks Guys Nathan I have an idea for steps but I have really been focused on the body. Here are some pics. Thanks for looking!
