Been working on this one for a few months now. Here's a quick run down.
This is the kit I got the cab from. Cab and interior is all that got used.

Modified the wheel wells and added one heavy duty chasiss

Scratch built the body and blended it with the cab with Bondo and a ton of sanding.

Custom decals from Die Cast and Decals. Very nice to work with and look great.

Could not get the kit bumper to look right with a bumper extension, so I scratch built a new bumper.

And now I am at the point of detailing the tools and accesories.
