for the rear of the cab i decided to do something different..usually there are 2 long stacked air breathers looming up the back to the top and facing the front ...well i want Frostbite to be alittle different .i decided to use the breathers from the kinghauler and join them into one intake at the rear of the cab.i scratchbuilt the double to single intake using evergreen styrene tubing and shaped it to fit both ..this will be another signature mod on my truck

got the stainless tridem dry van almost built..got the frame put under the trailer and the tridem suspension put on it .used the knighthauler 1/4 fenders for both the tractor and the trailer.redid the roof on the cab because i was not happy with the way it turned out .redid it again ..primed and put the Powder White Pearl paint on the cab.scratchbuilt the visor for and drilled the holes..painted it ..added the 3mm aluminum bezels with the clear lenses as that is what will be used throughout the truck ..anyway here are some pics to see the progress.i should be finished this combo unit in a day or 2..just putting the mfu and electronics in it right now and i found a 1/14 scale bike for Frostbite in my lhs so instead of the diecast bike ..it will be r/c
