Arrow Re: KW Daycab "Pipe Dream"

UPDATE!

It has certainly been a while; but I said 9 months, right?

This build has been on the back-burner due to buying a real truck, and working on that one. For those of you who are curious, it is a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 with a 5.9L V8. Anyway, I have repaired all the important stuff, and am ready to tackle this project!

Not much has been done to it except some trimming, sanding, and preparing to add some styrene to the lower section of the hood. I have also taken a chunk out of the fenders so that the are flush with the hood, and are straight with the body, mounted on the hood's slanted sides.

This is my first custom build, and I am very nervous when working with styrene, so I tend to take it slow.

But enough chat! Lets see a few pics...
even if they look just like last time...



Section of the hood removed to fill with a longer piece.



That is a weird angle...



Chunks cut out of fenders.



Fenders ready to be mounted!

Thanks for taking a look. Just some proof that this build is still alive, and that I am still alive!

I'll try to get some work done today, but it all depends on how straight I can get my fender sections.

I will see to it that this Pipe Dream comes to fruition!

P.S.

I am debating between semi tractor and dump truck. What do you guys think?
