There was alot of trial and error but after reading the forum for a couple years I finally got a Grand Hauler and joined the forum.

sweet looking ride...The color along with the chrome really sets it off. I would not change anything. This truck is a perfect example of Less Is More. Great job...

Looks good in red, nice job for your first truck ;)

[bigpipespete]

Sharp looking truck, what could you build if you had say... a week off !!

[janderson]

Very nicely done!

[The Wurst]

Looks really good! I too am on my first build.

[Izzy]

Ok so we all like it - how about you?

[Greener]

Thanks everyone. I love it. I would like to install more lights I doubt it will happen though lol. I can't wait to build another trying to talk the wife into getting one for the kids It just isn't going over very well.. I think my next build will be a 331 bottle since that's what I drag behind me all the time.

Great rig....that red really pops!

Great rig....that red really pops!

Lol was exactly what I was going to type...
What's the brand and number of the paint, if I can ask

[Greener]

The paint is radiant red the can says it's by big sky. I got the paint when I bought a truck it's auto paint thought I would give it a try. Hope that helps I've been busy at work haven't had a chance to get on here much lately

very nice red colour..looks great for a first time build ...as for another one..keep working on it ..tell her its for a good cause ...because you want another one...lol

[jasonthekid]

I'm usually not a big fan of red but that thing POPS!
Very sharp looking rig

[toniolillo]

I really like what you've done, and appears to be well painted, greetings

[Greener]

Thanks for the compliments. I can't wait to make it home from work so I can try to build my tank trailer my donor parts trailer came in last week and I haven't been home yet to even open the box.. I hope to get home this weekend but who knows...lol

[heavy_duty]

Great looking truck. I looks pretty mean sitting there.

I decided to go plastic instead of cutting up a trailer frame hope it works out.
I still have lots of work to do. I think the domed ends will be the hardest part and i need to get some fenders for the trailer.
