Small update. Been stocking up on parts this winter, havent had time to work on much. Now having more free time Ill be posting more. Got a set of Steves wheels for it and a box trailer. Painted the under carriage to match the truck. Gonna scratch build a reefer, get an icc bumper and put some mudflaps on. Gonna keep it simple.
