Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

I wish I had a money pit. Great start! I can't wait for updates? You gonna have this ready for Brookville? Maybe no more updates and a surprise unveiling?

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Are you starting to build a fleet,or are you building this one for me?:D

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Another sweet start! my eye is on this one....

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Great start Brian!! I'll be watching this one !!:cool:

Tim

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Can you give us an idea of what the final product will look like? This will be a "show stopper" too, or should it be named "Sho-Stopper II". Really looking forward to it Brian.

Ben

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Looking good Brian.. Who is this one for??

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Wow you really like Pete-tri-dumps, but after the last one turning out so well, why would anyone not want to enjoy doing it again? I'm sure it will be even better. Great start Brian.

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

you already won build of the month let someone else win! lol the stance is looking sweet nice and low upfront

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

No Doubt in my mind Brian, You'll knock this one out of the park as well,

Looking forward to more on this build, Great Start.

Well I know it's not mine :confused: It has the wrong cab :(:rolleyes::p:p

:eek: aww man , another asphalt queen :confused: looks like another great coal bucket build :D

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Well what to say that has not already been said. For sure Brian it will look good and you have mastered the Pete's. Now how about a Freightliner or a KW or if you want to get desperate an International.:p:D

I guess he needs more trucks to keep up with the machines loading him. Probably be hiring on a new driver too.:p

Looks longer than your other truck. Are you going add another axle and make it legal to run in Ohio?

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

nice start brian!
and for all those asking why a second, this one is a long nose! lol

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

another one???? LOL - we'll see how this one comes along

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

I love it! I was kinda depressed when your green Pete was because I looked forward to see the progress. Are you doing anything different as opposed to your last tri-axle?

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Looking good Brian, Just keep building and posting them so when I get ready to do a dump truck there will be plenty of info out especially from the Master.:cool:

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

It shure looks good with your cab and hood modification!

This will give you something to look forward to. Its gonna be a little different design body, something that is a little more modern looking in these parts.

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Brian your cabs are the best looking Petes when you modify the roof and windshield. You should sell some of your Pete cabs.

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Looking really good Brian.:D May I make a suggestion on the paint? You should go with clear with clear poka-dots :D:eek:...Thing's that make you go mmm:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:lol.

Big John

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

I have a dumb question! Are you using aluminum or stainless steel for your body?

Bill I'm using Aluminum. Stainless would be cool, tough to bend!

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

More pictures of the built process please. Great job.

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

It looks super cool Brian! How are you attaching the seperate pieced of aluminum together?

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Another beauty in the making, Brian. Will this one be yellow?

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Love it! Awesome build.... and um.... selling your cabs is a great idea, I would be onboard for one...

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

Any new updates on this one yet can't wait for the new progress shots...

Re: New build. Yes another peterbilt tri-axle dump!

I can't wait to see where this build is going!!
