Default Simple Pete Daycab

Hey guys, haven't been around for a while, but with the work season over I am finding that I have some extra time to build. I picked up this rig from my good buddy Rod (Stepside) at the ECMT Mack Show for a great deal. The plan is to keep it relatively simple, and have it complete for the next ECMT meet in march. I'll just be doing a few simple body mods.
This is what she looked like before


Then after some "negotiations" I was left with this


While checking in I picked up one of these puppies


Shortly after I arrived at this



Then I removed the headlights and framed the rear of the can for the insert






Next came the rear insert to close up the cab




Then I removed the rivets on the hood for a more of a fibreglass hood look. I also started to fill the holes from the air cleaners


Thinking of loosing the steps and moving the tanks up like this, show a little frame



Still got quite a bit of sanding left to do... But I guess that's just the name of the game with body mods

Thanks for taking a look!
