Speaking of MotorMaster, looks like he's in Transformers 4. Got a new look too:


Also this truck, which may be a Dinobot:

received the storage boxes for optimus in the mail today from the same guy who did the grille for optimus..

yes like lynn said the c bracket is removable .i am removing mine and its easy to turn the c bracket around and use the holes as a guide to drill .i am mounting mine to the frame directly and eliminating the bracket altogether...i will be doing that some time today or tomorrow so i will post pics of it i am going to put a little slot on the holes as looking at the box the bracket is a little crooked and i want them to sit evenly

[1985 kenworth]

got the storage box installed ,just have to put a spacer between the frame and the box like lynn suggested .it will make room to attach the headache rack and oh by the way i lowered the headache rack as it sat abit too high so now it is almost level with the bunk like it should be...its getting there
