BTW, if the campaign manager for the new truck group build ever gets in gear and decides what we're gonna build, I will probably steal your green body and gold wheels idea. IT's just too friggen' cool.

Thank you, that's what I was heading for...that custom just done up the way he likes it truck - ready for work. The hard call was lug tires in back or regular road tires for everyday highway use...never did a truck with lug tires so that version won...this time.
Next logger will be used and dirty I think.

Bob, there ain't nothing I don't like about this one. She's beautiful all the way around. Love the colors and the meats on the drive axles. Best part is the flag on the side of the cab. Looks like the War of Northern Agression left a few of our boys scattered around up north.
Really a nice build. I hope my first truck turns out half as nice as this one.

I figured you, of all people, would appreciate those flags. Dem good 'ol boys are everywhere - Thank you.
Now, let's see what those mad modelling skills can do for a truck build...I'm sure my "happy modelling skills" can't conpare!
