Looks mean with that F-350 Cab on it. The grill says get the hell out of my way.

I'm working one myself. I'd cut at least an inch off those rockers. The stick out way too far.

It just might be the same chassis. I picked it up from a friend and it was just the chassis and cab and need a few things to finish. I have all the new links, paint and the sand to sandblast the chassis so I hope to have it cleaned up and looking better by the end of the weekend.

mississippirocs · 09-11-2009, 06:53 PM

Got some paint on it today. I am gona try to get it back together and get the new wheels dyed tonite.

Here are some updated pics. I still have to get the new wheels and tires mounted...maybe this weekend.

I also have a set of mirrors that I need to get painted and I need some diamond plate styrene to do the bed area? Anyone have a link to where I can buy some. Im not sure what to get.

constantmotion · 09-16-2009, 09:30 PM

Looks good, Jeff.

Here's you some styrene
1/100

1/48
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXRD02&P=7

I am not sure what size would be best. I have some 1/16 and it's a little too big. In the pictures, 1/100 looks just about right.

DARKHORSE · 09-16-2009, 09:36 PM

Looks good Jeff, Now detail that grille and bumper

I just bought the alluminum body F350 on Ebay, I'm hoping with an insane amount of luck I can have something that looks at least half as good as yours.
