Default Re: KW c500 double set back tandem tandem 8X8 help

I really appreciate the comments. Still have lots of little detail work to do. Clearance lights, taillights etc. not sure what im doing for lights. As it is right now, there is no lights at all. That seems like a whole new ball game. A game that i shouldve planned for and i shouldve run the wiring....while building. Where do you draw the line? Easily tied up $5000.00 in this project already. Start doing lights...mfu....end up $6000.00 +. I still have to order rigging. Need chains, boomers, clevis's, tie back cables...
I have an understanding wife, but like i said where do you draw the line. I have a pretty good idea where she draws hers, and speaking from experience...i know better than x-ing her line.

Thanks for looking guys!!!

Wow bud you killed it...that's an outstanding build. You really nailed the fenders and hood of the c500 . I'm gonna post some of the pics of it in instagram on my page dedicated strictly to this hobby. Check it out and look at the feed back your pics will get. It's @scale_trucking_n_construction

Thank you for the comments. I am happy with the finished product. To think that hood/grill/cab are all made from original kinghauler components. Obviously the fenders are scratch built, as well as the hood side panels.
I will watch for your post in instagram. Thanks for looking.
