Well got her done. A few small things left. New trailer wire connector, and to decide on tanks or tool boxes under walking deck. Ran out of radio functions so no pov camera for now. Looking into 12 to 16 function radio's but that will be a while. Hope you all like.

Truck is working great, will be posting new update pics soon. Hope to have some Video after this weekends show in Estevan, Saskatchewan, Canada. The lights are strobe. I found them on evil bay after a little searching. Most places that have the police lights have a amber choice as well. Thanks for the kind comment.

Looks great! I like all the custom touches you did instead of buying off the shelf goodies.

Here are a few video's done by Stuff at Estevan model engineering show this fall. Dean does wonderful work with the camera.

Dieselchopper.. You must drive a truck like that.. Or you have very good skills with a remote..

Truck is very real and so is the equipment that you were using.. Like what you have done...

I actually have rarely driven trucks like this one, only used a winch line a few dozen times in real life. I have been around trucking and equipment all of my life. Growing up on the farm I had lots of practice with anything that moves. I am now a welding shop manager, which gives me some real nice toys to build toys with.........

Looking good Diesel Chopper! I like your cab guard, combination winch rack. Those short go between fenders are really nice as well.

Several people have ideas, i think the one i must listen most to is the wife.......She asked for a truck. I am in the process of a few off the wall builds that will be interesting.

As well I want to thank all who have praised this rebuild. I know the approval of peers is valued to me as I am sure it is with most all of us on here.

Kool build - I like the detail of the fenders transitioning in width from the deck to over the wheels - nice look.

Came out pretty nice, like what you did with the chopped roof.
