Yes quite a bit. I have corrected the scale issue and added a few inches to the length. The furniture is to proper scale now and the cab is painted. I will have a few pics soon. Benn busy with the bedroom remodeling(1:1 scale room that is). Just about finished and should be able to get in some bench time soon.

After a lot of corrections and total misery with the paint I have come this far on this one. I scaled down the interior and lengthen the chassis to the proper length. I molded in the front grill and re did the fenders on the cab. I also added a visor and a low swept front bumper. The graphics are home made on my computer. The white you see in the windows is white glue that will clear up when totally dry to make the window glass. I still have to install the mirrors and lights all around and add the generator grill and trailer hitch to finish it up.

Well here it is for all it's worth. It has to go done with the MOST aggravating build of all time. But I learned a lot from it.
