Default Hayes HD dump truck...RCP's style

Well, I figured when I bought my KH that I would get to this eventually....
I have spent the winter months making stuff for other folks(thank you for the business!) but things have slowed a little now for RCP's and summer shows and commercial fishing are approaching. This is the first time in three years that I haven't had a least one scratch build going so to say the least I have been feeling the itch to build something for myself! I don't have any major plans for this build as I will be cheating and using a Tamiya chassis. I will however, (in my usual style) be making everything else from aluminum. My plan is to build a Hayes HD dump truck from the late 50's early 60's era....

Here's what I have done since this morning...

I started out just the same as I did with my beloved 850. I traced some things out and started cutting. Then some welding and grinding. 4 hours later I have a cab....











Thanks for looking! Heading back out to the shop to start on the rest!
