I agree with Reg, I believe the skills needed are there!

Thanks guys for your advice and thoughts

I actually have made some frame arches for the hood earlier. I will try to go on with that way, but I not sure how that will turn out

Got some parts for the cab done, the fire wall and the rear wall.

Awesome build !! I agree with Reg and Trucker Jo. Try to make the cab from metal. From your past builds, you have the skills to do it. It just takes a lot of nerve to try. You might want to go with brass or copper instead of aluminum. I wish that I would have tried to make the cab on my Studebaker US6 out of metal instead of modifying a Tamiya truck cab.

I made more parts for the cab, the roof and the door. And while I had the brass plate on the machine table, I made the upper shock bracket

In the picture there's also the wheel arc that I made earlier.
