next up finish piecing in the cab and then stretch the sleeper. then the fun part stretching the roof with all the contours and curves

Chopped and dropped, that looks awsome.:D:eek: Now when I stretched the sleeper on my knight, I cut right in front of the farings, and I didn't have to worry about all of the curves in the roof. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.;):) Nice job.:cool::cool:

i was going to cut it right infront of the fairings to stretch the sleeper, but by chopping the top....the roof automatically became a 1/2 inch longer
