[RAIDERS]

great start as always..

[glorydays24]

Sure to be a show stopper as usual Brian.:D;):):p

Big John

[CorbettTrailers]

I wish I had a money pit. Great start! I can't wait for updates? You gonna have this ready for Brookville? Maybe no more updates and a surprise unveiling?

[sneaky-pete]

Are you starting to build a fleet,or are you building this one for me?:D

[sgt hopkins]

Another sweet start! my eye is on this one....

[cabrover]

Great start Brian!! I'll be watching this one !!:cool:

Tim

[Snochaser]

Can you give us an idea of what the final product will look like? This will be a "show stopper" too, or should it be named "Sho-Stopper II". Really looking forward to it Brian.

Ben

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Looking good Brian.. Who is this one for??

[SWAGGER]

Wow you really like Pete-tri-dumps, but after the last one turning out so well, why would anyone not want to enjoy doing it again? I'm sure it will be even better. Great start Brian.

[Diesel Demond]

you already won build of the month let someone else win! lol the stance is looking sweet nice and low upfront

[AZLIGHTNING]

No Doubt in my mind Brian, You'll knock this one out of the park as well,

Looking forward to more on this build, Great Start.

[ihbuilder]

Looking good Brian.. Who is this one for??

Well I know it's not mine :confused: It has the wrong cab :(:rolleyes::p:p

:eek: aww man , another asphalt queen :confused: looks like another great coal bucket build :D

[fhhhstix]

Well what to say that has not already been said. For sure Brian it will look good and you have mastered the Pete's. Now how about a Freightliner or a KW or if you want to get desperate an International.:p:D

Travis

[9W Monighan]

Well I know it's not mine :confused: It has the wrong cab :(:rolleyes::p:p

:eek: aww man , another asphalt queen :confused: looks like another great coal bucket build :D

I guess he needs more trucks to keep up with the machines loading him. Probably be hiring on a new driver too.:p


Looks longer than your other truck. Are you going add another axle and make it legal to run in Ohio?

[ihbuilder]

Well what to say that has not already been said. For sure Brian it will look good and you have mastered the Pete's. Now how about a Freightliner or a KW or if you want to get desperate an International.:p:D

Travis

na he better stick with the belly buttons :p:p:p


[QUOTE=9W Monighan;49598]I guess he needs more trucks to keep up with the machines loading him. Probably be hiring on a new driver too.:p


just so he don't hire that young driver of the yellow and black mack that cam e into the quarry :eek::eek::eek::eek:

[doodlebug]

Well what to say that has not already been said. For sure Brian it will look good and you have mastered the Pete's. Now how about a Freightliner or a KW or if you want to get desperate an International.:p:D

Travis

Yah Maybe a C500 Kenworth or 6900 Western Star 40 ton coal bucket,:eek:
Cheer's, Neil.

[Goose19]

nice start brian!
and for all those asking why a second, this one is a long nose! lol

[Izzy]

another one???? LOL - we'll see how this one comes along

[Bsorenson79]

I love it! I was kinda depressed when your green Pete was because I looked forward to see the progress. Are you doing anything different as opposed to your last tri-axle?

[TRUCKMAKER]

Looking good Brian, Just keep building and posting them so when I get ready to do a dump truck there will be plenty of info out especially from the Master.:cool:

[D8R]

It shure looks good with your cab and hood modification!

Dan

[Brian in PA]

Another sweet start! my eye is on this one....

Great start Brian!! I'll be watching this one !!:cool:

Tim

Thanks fellas!

Can you give us an idea of what the final product will look like? This will be a "show stopper" too, or should it be named "Sho-Stopper II". Really looking forward to it Brian.

Ben
I'm not really sure what the final product will be, I've looked for pics on the internet for some ideas, but with no luck

Looking good Brian.. Who is this one for??
Thanks! Me!!
Wow you really like Pete-tri-dumps, but after the last one turning out so well, why would anyone not want to enjoy doing it again? I'm sure it will be even better. Great start Brian.

I'm really not sure?:confused::confused:

Ya Steve I'll have to get one for next year I can pay in food.:D I'm gonna keep it a tri axle.

[Brian in PA]

Thats what my wife said.:o:o
I love it! I was kinda depressed when your green Pete was because I looked forward to see the progress. Are you doing anything different as opposed to your last tri-axle?
This will give you something to look forward to. Its gonna be a little different design body, something that is a little more modern looking in these parts.

[Brian in PA]

http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo141/Briansmitsky/8ea11619.jpg

[BRICKNICK]

Brian your cabs are the best looking Petes when you modify the roof and windshield. You should sell some of your Pete cabs.

[glorydays24]

Looking really good Brian.:D May I make a suggestion on the paint? You should go with clear with clear poka-dots :D:eek:...Thing's that make you go mmm:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:lol.

Big John

[Bsorenson79]

I have a dumb question! Are you using aluminum or stainless steel for your body?

[Brian in PA]

Brian your cabs are the best looking Petes when you modify the roof and windshield. You should sell some of your Pete cabs.
Thanks! Ive been thinking about it.

Bill I'm using Aluminum. Stainless would be cool, tough to bend!

[kaptain Jack]

More pictures of the built process please. Great job.

[crawler07]

It looks super cool Brian! How are you attaching the seperate pieced of aluminum together?

[Espeefan]

Another beauty in the making, Brian. Will this one be yellow?

[sgt hopkins]

Love it! Awesome build.... and um.... selling your cabs is a great idea, I would be onboard for one...

[Dairyland Trucker]

Any new updates on this one yet can't wait for the new progress shots...

[JAKEBRAKE]

I can't wait to see where this build is going!!

[Brian in PA]

Another beauty in the making, Brian. Will this one be yellow?

Ben

[dabears]

This build is coming along nice! The hood is looking good.. Can't wait to see what's its going to look like completed

[Bsorenson79]

As always great build!! I was wondering if you can get into a little more detail on you'r lift axle set up? I'm about to start on a lift axle. I'm at a lose on how to go about. I wish someone sold a unit like the lift axle unit for the Wedico trucks.

Big John

[Goose19]

Nice work!

[pumptech]

Awesome build you have going :D like the axles ,looks to be heavyduty !!

[hauler_10-4]

Excellent workmanship as always Brian.

[dabears]

That lift axle looks good and very tough!! what did you use to make it? looks heavy duty!

[SWAGGER]

Coming along great Brian, nice work as usual!

[cielo1889]

lift axle nicely done, and rigid

[Espeefan]

Brian, there you go again with those awesome rivets! What size where you using again? 1.6mm? I love those things.

[picapiedra]

Congratulations for your work, the detail of bending the shaft'm fine but I imagine that the material is flexible, no?

[ihbuilder]

how's this 1 coming along , Brian ? look FWD to some updates :D;).

[Brian in PA]

Thanks for the comments guys. The lift axle bend is actually made form a piece of 1/2 solid steel rod that i heated and bent. I had turned it down to fir inside one of Ric's aluminum tamiya axles. i had cut about 1 inch off of each end than inserted the steel axle in side it.

[Brian in PA]

OK here are some updated pics. I got my wheels and tanks from Steve! Thanks Steve, they fit great. I also got the rivets done. Enjoy and thanks for looking!

I got a few more things done, it should be ready for paint by the end of the weekend. I got my cylinder in from Scale Art, thing is a true piece of work, second to none, pricey, but worth it! thanks for looking and enjoy the pics!

[Brian in PA]

Time to dust off this thread. I had some time this week so I pulled this off of the shelf and stared to finish up what I started. I got the tailgate latch to work. I wasn't going to do this on this truck but after seeing how useless it was at Indy without it I decided to make it work. Thanks for looking!

Another Masterpiece Brian. Love the colors... Heck love it all!!

[JDH429]

That is unreal! A real inspiration for someone looking for ideas. Thanks for sharing!

[Azorean]

AMAZING, JUST WOW...

[JDH429]

Can I ask about size of material you used to build your box? The plate for side walls, plate for front outer skin on the box? And the verticle side posts on the outside of the box? looks bigger than 1/4" square. Are those solid alum square stock? How about the under frame of the box which looks Killer btw. Thanks!

Ill have to check on the thickness for you, its about a 32nd or so. The posts are actually brake formed outer skins with 1/4 inch stock under them. The frame is also 1/4 stock. Thanks!

[Clint307]

That is a really sharp looking end dump Brian! Super fancy! :D

[Claus]

Quite possibly the best looking truck on the board.

Both of your dump trucks are awesome. Even the yellow one with the trailer. Surprised no pics of the 3 of them together. Do you have any vids any where?
