What an ambitious project While I love working with brass, I don't think that I have the nerve to make an entire cab out of it. I am not the best at sheet metal work at all. Machining brass is all together different than doing any kind of sheet metal. All I can say is "GOOD LUCK!!!"

Will be watching this build

I hope I don't disappoint. Now the cab is brass, but true to the real truck, Im building a fiberglass hood. The first one I made unfortunately didn't work out so well, but I'll show you the pictures of the forms I used.I used copper tubing to build the general shape.
I then covered it with masking tape and taped the styrofoam fender blanks to it.
I then covered the whole thing again
and this is how it fit to the cab, but the fenders are to low, unfortunately, I didn't notice till after I laid the glass(sorry I don't have pictures of the glass hood) so I have to start again

Could someone post some pics of a king hauler front axle, minus the wheels and with some measurements please. I need to build a front axle for mock up, and to place suspension. Amy help would be great. Thanks
Tim

P.s. New pics coming soon

Could someone please point me on the right direction for a scale cat motor that will hide the motor, I can't seem to find them anywhere
