I have the brass gears in my Pete - sticking with stock gears in this build. A little un fair but I'm on a budget. :(

I received the shipment I was waiting on - a donor hood to help get the "curves" right ... I laid in some faint lines on where I plan to cut ..... and some replacement pics of the truck - new camera!

Update!

Did some cutting - and then started pasting .... working on bridging the gap in the cuts down the center of the hood now.

Re: T880 - Izzy style???
 

I sure hope that you numbered everything before you took it apart so you can put it back together.. I have no idea how you figured it out but it look good I think....

Re: T880 - Izzy style???

Wow Izzy that is a lot of the cutting and shaping You are doing..impressive.

That is going to look nice.

Re: T880 - Izzy style???
 

Whew, that's a lot of cutting and chopping! I would never try to attempt something like that myself, but you sure have a knack for it! Looking forward to the progress.

Re: T880 - Izzy style???
 

Great work Izzy!

Re: T880 - Izzy style???

Re: T880 - Izzy style???
 

I wouldn't throw it away just yet Chris.:eek::rolleyes:;):cop: What's keeping the hood raised from the body? If I know you from your other builds, I'll bet you'll figure it out. Just don't give up buddy.:):D;)

Lookin' Great Izzy :bounce: Keep up the amazing work!!:cool:

Re: T880 - Izzy style???
 

Dude I'm having the same thoughts with my cat ct 660 build as I too started with an aeromax and quickly found out all I could use was the top of the hood, but it's getting there..... So u keep at it and I'm sure u will get it on the money!

Re: T880 - Izzy style???

Re: T880 - Izzy style???

Re: T880 - Izzy style???

Re: T880 - Izzy style???
 

Thanks for the kind words everyone - this is taking extra time for me - work has been really long this winter.
