Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Thank you! And yep that's one from Russ! I'm going to repaint it though the shade coherence is killing me

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

any new updates?

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Well the driver changed jobs from hauling dirt to other stuff so the wet kit came off and i made some new tank straps from some of Brians stainless straps (which by the way Brian please make more i need some.... HINT HINT) and got the tanks mounted to where they should sit under the sleeper. I repolished the rear deck plates but am just going to cut new ones as the main one still has the hole from the old 5th wheel release. I made a new release so i dont need the hole anymore... Started to look further into the mounts for the fenders and i think i have it figure out pretty good so hopefully tomorrow i can make those mounts. I did manage to do a quick mock up tonight with the tanks mounted.. now i still need to attatch the visor, remake the deck plates, mount russ's "sliding 5th wheel mounts" and mount the fenders. Then i can final wire the cab seal her up and she's done. Hopefully only a couple more days till completion (all depends how late i get stuck at work) Heres a few mock up pics :D

:D

Thanks for looking... Maybe a nice lowboy would look good behind her, or a flatbed even?:cool:...... inputs??

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Looking good Aaron, I'm thinking a nice spread axle flat bed would fit the bill.

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

I think that would look excellent with a spread axle flatbed Aaron!!!

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

This truck is great! I think a soft side with flex and spread axle with boxes would look pretty killer!

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

The truck looks killer I think it would look good with a mac end dump smooth side

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Have you gotten anymore recent updates on the KW yet can't wait to see more great build so far.

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Very nice!....Both, Trailer and tractor...:cool:

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

I think your right!! That would look killer

I agree!!

Thanks! Hmmm grain trailer would be nice!! maybe a bull wagon too ?

Yea it looks good with a dump but decieded not to do a dump with it.

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Looking good Aaron, nice job on the interior and MFU mount.

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

You definitely did a great job on this build Aaron. :cool: I love the fact you were able to keep a detailed cab. Must be all that experience and knowledge of cab overs to be able to get it all into the sleeper:eek:
Love the pics, great work.:)

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Aaron,I thought this truck was bad at our last show.But you keep on making this truck sicker and sicker.This is off the chain.

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Thats one fancy truck! I also agree with paul nice touch on stock air cleaners. That shutter grill looks great, and great looking detail on interior.

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Trucks looking good Aaron, I like the color scheme. What kind of wagon you going to pull?

Re: Custom Kenworth
 

Wow Aaron, you knocked this one out of the park...You've been busy...
