I have the brass gears in my Pete - sticking with stock gears in this build. A little un fair but I'm on a budget.

I received the shipment I was waiting on - a donor hood to help get the "curves" right ... I laid in some faint lines on where I plan to cut ..... and some replacement pics of the truck - new camera!

Update!

Did some cutting - and then started pasting .... working on bridging the gap in the cuts down the center of the hood now.

I sure hope that you numbered everything before you took it apart so you can put it back together.. I have no idea how you figured it out but it look good I think....

That looks like a real good start Izzy. Should be a real nice looking cab when you get done. Ed

Izzy,
That looks like it is going to be another sick build. I can't wait to see it when it is done my friend drives one of those and it looks like you are nailing the **** out of it. Great job.

Whew, that's a lot of cutting and chopping! I would never try to attempt something like that myself, but you sure have a knack for it! Looking forward to the progress.

I wouldn't throw it away just yet Chris. What's keeping the hood raised from the body? If I know you from your other builds, I'll bet you'll figure it out. Just don't give up buddy.

Dude I'm having the same thoughts with my cat ct 660 build as I too started with an aeromax and quickly found out all I could use was the top of the hood, but it's getting there..... So u keep at it and I'm sure u will get it on the money!
