troy they say chrome don't get you home but it sure makes you look good getting there ! quarter fenders sure made the difference . this truck will complement your bad azz fleet for sure

How about a drop visor? Not a huge one but something better than that plastic thing on that beautiful truck. Just my opinion.

Troy, I like it very much. If you put this up for sale, I and everyone else would be waiting in line to buy it. Very nice. What a beauty! I have to second Craig's thought. She really does need a little bigger drop visor.

Great job polishing out those mill marks on the grill. I didn't think it was possible, but you accomplished it nicely. That's one thing that sort of turns me off to those machined grills. Touch of red paint on the grill emblem yet to come?

How much do you want for that rig? :D

WOW!!! Troy that is bad to the bone!! I third the idea on the drop visor, it would take one mean looking truck and make it meaner!! Keep it up dude!

Thanks guys......I agree on the visor,I just need to find someone that can make
me one.
I still have some little details to do,and red or blue in the emblem is one of them.
As far as selling it.......every thing is for sale:D,but I spent allot of time
out in my 107 degree garage,and aprox. five 1.75 bottles of crown royal to get it finished.

I'm sure there are others here that can build nice visors buy Stepside Rod is working on one for my Wedico right now, might want to ask him.

That is a good looking truck just the way it is. The colors and chrome set it off.

Troy this is now officially my new favourite truck, outstanding work! You're putting me to shame with all the trucks you've built while I'm still on my first one! I am making some slow progress though. Seeing cool trucks like this one makes me want to hurry up and get mine done!

Now that you have changed your avatar are you going to change your name? Sneaky Pete wouldn't look right on a Kenworth.

Very nice Troy, looks great pulling the bottom dump. How about Caniving Kenworth? Will you be working on the Pete with the walk in sleeper next, can't wait to see that one finished up.

My next project is a NHRA transporter,w/generator bunk,canopy,work benches,
lighting,and that kind of stuff.

I have a 1/16 scale funny-car,and dragster to use for the car.
I just have not decided witch one to model (oakley funny car or budwieser dragster?:cool:
My next project will be a truck and trailer......with hydro-graphics!!!

What is there to say but beautiful , love the blue and white with the silver trim lines, as they say the devil is in the detail.

A very nice rig indeed! But, loose the MFU. Install Servonaut and get a much better driving experience.

I very much believe in the fact that sometime the first idea is not always the best one and the end results is much better. I think this one came out great and the color is just amazing. Great truck.
