Ok I am looking at redoing my Pete again :D So here is how I started;

then it became this;

I am looking to change the silver to a Pearl White and thinking of changing paint scheme. I have ordered a pair of double hump rear fenders from S&P. Looking to change the headlights as well most likely to single rounds.
So throw out some suggestions please and some of our vendors might be getting some PM's :D:D
Thanks

I'd say Steve's wheels, SnP stacks....

With the double hump fenders, you might think of stretching the frame and a nicely polished deck plate to go along with the stacks and Steve's wheels.

If you are going to do a repaint, why not get a set of S&P Pete fenders for the front end?

Snochaser, Espeefan -I am looking at getting new stacks, I am considering S&P fenders as looking over some of the builds here I am liking the way they look. I have decided I am going to keep the Blue color
TC -I have stretched it out the last time i redid it not sure I want to put any more stretch in it.
Thanks for the comments never know this might end up being a total tear down and redo never know or might just be redo the cab with some polishing.

Brian's steps,and visor
John's front and rear fenders
John's pipes
Bone Yard tanks
Brian's pre-cut deck plate
Steve's wheels and air cleaners
It looks cool now,but would be killer with these parts!

Go with a Wedico sleeper if you really want to add to the Peterbilt look. Also try to close the gap between the front wheels and the bumper.
Oh I forgot, paint it red.

Thanks for the suggestions guys keep em coming. Think I am going to go with the dark blue for one color and a white diamond similar to the one Caddy uses. Just not sure of the scheme yet. Undecided on the front fenders but i do agree the pipes have to change.
