Thanks Much Lou for the great comment..


Little update had a good friend of mine paint it for I got too many irons in the fire right now with the hobby and work so Mike painted it and did a killer job on it so Thank You Very Much Mike..

So here are some update picks..








Got these awesome door handles Russ made for me sanded and polished witch was not easy it all..





Made a radio antenna for the drivers side of the cab this is not a CB antenna..

Took 2 small flat head screws and took a file and V'd out the slot so the antenna wire fit in it. Then took very lite gauge copper strand wire and wrapped it around the wire and screw head back and forth.





Then brushed flux all over the head and wire then soldered it and this is what you end up with.





Then here are some poser picks.. I polished up one of Travis's great KW grills and polished up a Texas Blank and a set of AC's From IHB and added a set of Kenworth emblems and Swan from PMD that is where I am now..



















So now I am waiting on some MFU lights I ordered from tamiya USA and a rear shaft from Rc4wd and a set of FUEL TANKS! and I can finisher her up..
