LOL - Thanks , I basically just drew it out until i liked the overall shape, then measured it like 14 times, and cut once, then a whole LOT of sanding..!!! Theres not really alot of plastic left in the upper cab actually now..!!! , I'd better NOT roll it too much..!!

I hate you more and more every time i see new pics of clampy,Chris! (jk).
Outstanding work on the sun roof. That takes a very steady hand.

Well if you ever do let this go you know what i have to trade, plus cash

okay, frankly right now i'm too lazy to reread through this thread to find out if someone has beat me to it, but if you ever smack your head on a large rock and suddenly lose all good sense and decide to sell this rig i call first dibs that being said you have created another great looking truck

Hey Thanks man.., Honestly, I'm just using Super glue gel. It has worked awesome so far, with NOTHING breaking by handling it at all..
