Looking good.Coming along really well.Can't wait to see finished product.

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Lovin' the updates!!! Any idea if lenses will fit those Chinese air cleaners? I'm really diggin' the updates! What's he plan for a bumper? Or is it in the mail!!? :eek:

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

That is looking REALLY mean! I think less is more on the cab lights. Keep it up:D

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Arioch...

Looking good man... Go with the wedico lights they look better than the tamiya ones they are a little larger than tamiya and look better on the cab.. Also 9 lights look better then 10 for some reason a odd number always looks better.. The air cleaners are nice I see what you mean maybe get some screen from Steve and warp that around the top will help and the chain box steps look great nice work...

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

The air cleaners are already off to be fixed ;) I don't think lenses will fit in them, but I might try to get my hands on a few to try it out. That would make them perfect.

For the bumper... Haven't ordered anything yet but leaning toward a screw less wrap around from Steve.

Right now I'm trying to get my self to spend the $50 for the roof lights....

I need to mount the headlights too, anyone have tips on that? I have the square Pete style from PMD

Thanks for the comments guys!

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

This morning I got the headlights mounted, still have to square them up, but I think they look pretty good on there

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Looking great man

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

looks clean and mean, i like the wheels too.

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Great looking truck. That grille is nice! Something a little different. Just smooth and clean. I like the air breather light bars too. Swapping out that stock bumper will pull it all together! I'll keep an eye on this build.

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Thanks guys, I'm really liking how its turning out. I had my doubts when I first started the body work!

Today was pretty productive, got the roof lights mounted, and drilled holes for the rear cab lights.

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Thanks cabs, that was the goal haha

Finished up the holes for the lights in the back panel, that was more difficult than it should have been....

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
 

Woah I like way you have mounted your lights. What style of stacks are you going to use? Are you going to get aluminum tanks? Keep it up:bounce:

Re: Simple Pete Daycab
