Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
Was the original mount too high? Maybe just add some diagonal bars like the original setup, maybe that's what's missing from the current mounts. Looks good anyway, deck plate is cool.

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
Thanks guys!
The more I look at it the more I hate the mount......it's gotta go. The stock mount is to high,but I may try something else.

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
I am finally getting around to a small update!
I decided to drop the lift axle and shorten the frame,and have been working on my headlamps.I have not had much time lately to work on my trucks,but sometime is better than no time! I have a lot of filling and sanding to do,but thought I would throw some pics in. The car in the background is a hint at what my next project will be  .

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
Looking really good, Troy. I was happy to see an update to this build. Hoping to see even more, soon! I have no clue what 'seminol' is, but are you building a drag car hauler or something?

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
That looks great! Love the way you re-worked the headlight surrounds like the real thing.

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
Super cool rig, it just looks so bad. Bodywork is sweet, really nailed the KW look. I am so envious of the rims, they compliment the truck well.

Re: Starting my daycab Kenworth
Ah ha! I understand now. Yeah, that paint scheme is making a come back. I see it on a lot of trucks, even if it originated on KWs first. That would look good.
