I'd like to take a look at that. Any chance I can stop by this weekend?

 

So a week after I put this together someone copies it? Haha.

There's also an entire front clip on eBay if someone wants to build a real one!

 

Sorry Robert. Been busy. Send me a pm if you can.


Been welding up rear cab mounts. Nothing too much else but some paint.

6CT Cummins 8.3 plans coming...

 

Yeah here's my truck lol.

 

I'm fairly new on the forum so I can't pm yet. As soon as I can I will. There are a number of guys on FaceBook that are following the build and love what your doing with the truck.

 

Anybody know if the 1957 small back window is the same as a 1956 small back window? Glass and rubber wise.

 

A quick and dirty check I do is look at LMCs catalog on line. The part numbers between '56 and '57 for back windows are different, as are the part numbers for the seals.

 

From my Case/International days, the DT466 is reputed to be a more reliable engine than the 8.3 - just sayin'.

 

WOW, Just WOW, I love this build, probably my favorite of all time now, and I thought that was your other build, where did you find that model, it is super cool too!

 

U

 

Oh sweet Jesus... Let me roll my tongue up off the ground...

 

I see little pieces of this and that and wonder what they are? What is attached to the top of the drivers door? What is that on the left front fender by the turn signal light? What is just above the drivers door handle? Will you be extending the front of the bed? Looks like it will take the roof of at least two donor cabs to complete the roof. It is all looking very nice. Look forward to seeing the continuing saga. Thanks for updating.

 

Man that looks awesome.

 

Just when I thought your truck couldn't get any cooler. Wow, a crewcab! Paint scheme?
