I'm glad you finally shaved the headlight buckets! That's one of the bigger changes that help make a KH look like a Pete. Very cool. Nice to follow the transformation all along the way. I also think it's nice you kept the stripes. Kind of like keeping some of the truck's origins.

Fantastic job. I like how you nailed the proportions on this truck: not to long and not to short. ...that and the round headlights combined with the square bumper. Perfect!

Cheers

Hello Paul! I'm a newbie here. First off awsome truck! Did you make the deck plate. Also I see all these Pete emblems. I search every where for them. I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction where to get them.
