Hi fellas, came across an old ford cab in the parts box & decided to give it a go.
This is my first attempt at this much scratch-building but,it's getting there.
So far,I've got the bed,stacks,mudflaps,& fuel tanks roughed out...still a ways to go.

I like what you have done with the stacks. Great looking tray too.
The mud flaps look like real rubber.

If my calculations are correct (I were not good at sums at skool) Rolling Eyes
that's around 4 1/2 years between posting comment on this build?
What gives?.... Or should I "S.T.F.U", and get back to my model
 bench!... Very Happy
