Been working on more detail today i did the door lines and added the compartment door round turn door handles and made 2 of the 8 cab spot lights. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...y/IMG_0695.jpg |
I spent a bunch of time last night working on the head light pods. They took me sometime to build I took 1/4 PVC sheet and carved them out with a dremel and a knife. I used PMD square light lenses. I have them out in the shop in primer Ill get better picks today of them finished. I am hoping to get them mounted on the truck tonight.

Well here are the headlight pods for the front of the fire and I also made the blinkers too. So here they are mounted on the truck with the blinkers.

Well I started the big task of wiring this beast. There are still plenty of one off parts I will have to make as I install the lights and MFU.I wanted to make this set up as easy for the owner to use as I could and make the inside of the cab as clean as i could so all you see is the seats and dash. I mounted the speaker in the bed of the truck and built a box around it so i could upholster it with black cloth. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...y/IMG_0707.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...y/IMG_0708.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...y/IMG_0710.jpg |
Then I was going to mount the MFU control's in the bed of the truck under the floor by the battery but that is not real user friendly so i built the hoes rack and mounted it inside of that with a opening on top. Also I mounted the reviver away from everything to keep it clear of power fields.

Re: Pumper Truck Build
Now I built this truck for a company and I took it to them a few days before they gave it to there top grossing seller as a gift for all his sales so here are some shots of the Big Wigs getting a look at it before they took final possession of it.

Re: Pumper Truck Build
Holy smokes dude, incredible build!
How did this come about, or have you built other trucks for occasions also? |
Re: Pumper Truck Build
When this was presented the response Paul got was incredible and the job was truly one of his best you should have seen it in person. I was lucky enough to see it being built and roll into the crowd, Paul doent give himself enough credit on this one.
