Nice! I like how you got creative and flipped the airfoil so it sits vertically, rather then horizontally. The Aeromax has always been one of my favorite stock built Tamiya trucks. It looks great as a daycab too, and those wheels are awesome. Looks more like a fleet truck that way, rather then a fancy owner operator truck!

I like the truck it has a nice work truck look. There is one part that doesn't seem to belong, the wind deflector on the top it just doesn't look right to me.:confused: But hay that is my opinion, as long as your happy that is all that matters.:cool:

I like the look....The deflector reminds me of the old school mack we have around here in jersey with the deflectors...They go straight up just like that one

http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6904dc42.jpghey travis this is a photo of the first tractor i owned its a 1995 ford aeromax with full fairings and as you can see it is more vertical than horizontal because of the very little room they had to work with on top of such a small roof and that is the look i was going for with this build

I like the look Dwayne. :cool:

If you change the color it may open your name options?

You always like to go with a Greek mythology type name..... How bout something like Minotaur ? Or how bout. Atlas ?

This is cool!!! I love the 'fleet truck' look...all of our local trucks at work have the high air foil and fairings at the rear of the cab. And your creativity with turning the air foil up on end adds such a unique look to it, just like the 1:1 pic you shared!

I was thinking I had seen this as your avatar over on Scale 4x4 at one point and was hoping you would post a thread with bigger pics, thanks for sharing!:D

Keep up the good work!
