Thanks for posting those pics.Around here we have front discharge mixers.Back in the day I used to work at Advance mixer welding the barrells.They had wild paint schemes on them from flames to stars n stripes,spirals,diamonds and even nascar car themes.But the dumptrucks were tough looking like the Macks,Autocars,Reo and Paystars.I'm gonna start on a Paystar 5000 soon since I'm getting burnt out on this and need a change.Hopefully you'll finish your 346 one day.

Ur truck is great looking for sure and the paint is going to be perfect when done.. I have mine set up with 3 rear powered and one front so it is like a 8x8 but I never finished the body work and paint cuz i was not sure what to do with the bed?? I dont like the hoist set up so I am not sure what to do with it..

Nice build. I agree the bruder body looks great on there.
I'm curious about the hydraulic cylinder under the frame in front of the axle. What is it for? Steering?
