Epic build and it is so close to 1:1 its just great realism. Nice work. :)

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Very very nice!!! Will it be at the Indy show? It looks spot on.

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Very nice,do you still have the truck you based it off of? If you do you should get a pic of both of the together.

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Oh it looks so good! I would say its time for a video!!Have you thought about running some of the softer RC4WD tires? For looks their not much better that the tamiya tires,but performance wise their in an entirely different park..Great Rig man!!!

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

January build of the month. You get my nomination and vote!

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Brian that dump truck is awesome. Your fleet of trucks are amazing. I think this shows how far the hobby has come from original out of box too this...WOW

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Brian, excellent build, very true to the 1:1. I've followed it from the time I came to the board and have waited inpatiently to see it at this point (Love tri-axle dumps). Is the 1:1 still around so you can get a photo of the 2 together? Can't wait to see what you do next, this one will be hard to beat.

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Great job Brian! Been waiting a long time to see this baby done. Outstanding work! A+

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

are the breather lights something that you built yourself or did you buy them wow they make the truck so much more realistic:cool:

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Brian, I don't think you could have gotten it any more perfect. What a beautiful model.

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

very cool truck very slick and all the detail very nice job

How about a family photo with the yellow daycab?

Thanks Nick! I'm glad you got it:) I may just unpack the daycab for some photos.

Thanks Guys!

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump Finally done!! 1/1/12

Brian, congrates for the best looking model Peterbilt. Wish there was a button to download hole tread and print out (suggestion to moderators). I´m not into this scale but if I ever will build one I would follow your description completely (maybee do a copy of my real one like you did). The shape of the cab looks so real! Details like the shovel, lightning on rear mirrors, real rubber mudflaps, under cab lightning and .......... , that´s things that makes a winner.
You got my vote!
If I understand right, the 1:1 is sold ,so what´s the new looking like?
Dan
