Just a quick update. Built a 12' 10" stick for a cat 330. Still have a few little details to add and some finish sanding.

Ok guys I have a new update for you. I did a sword Mack flat/dump truck to tractor conversion for a buddy of mine and wanted to share with all of you. I added a drop axle (non functioning cause that how he wanted it), Pete 379 rear fenders, headache rack,fifth wheel, and a few other details. Hope you enjoy and if you have any questions or need something built send me an email so the address at the bottom of the post. Thanks guys!

Are you going to let those plates sit outside and rust? I have always wanted to know it that would work to make them look a little more realistic.

So I finally got to build something for myself Teeth. My favorite trucks are kenworths and first gear's Aztec gold is one of my favorite colors, so I have been trying too build a lot of my trucks with the Aztec gold t880s. I have a couple of norscot dump beds that I have been saving so I built myself a new dump truck. I plan on making a Michigan style pup trailer too go behind it, I just need a lot of wheels Pray Lol. So here's a few pics of it.

Hey guys! It rained all day Sad , so I had some time on my hands lol. I have some customer stuff I could have been working on but I have really been wanting to build some stuff for me, so that's what I did Teeth . I have been saving up Talbert lowboys so I could build a heavy haul trailer. I decided to build a 2x3x2, I built the jeep from scratch minus the axles shells and tires (they we donated from a lowboy). I wanted a beam trailer instead of the normal lowboy with deck so I took the hack saw and did some chopping and filling. Then I built it all back up with some styrene to make it look right. I still have to build the 2 axle stinger (need one more set of wheels and an axle). Here's some pictures, and always if you have any questions or want something built shoot me a email! Thanks guys!
