You are definitely not alone in that type of frustration. 2 of my 3 favorite quotes are from the Three Stooges (twisted I know). One of them is when one of their adventures starts taking a downward spiral and Mo stands there (hand rubbing chin) and says, "You know, that was my idea but now I'm...

Thanks Lowbudget! Another "add to the pondering" list is a good look for the air horns (and 3 cab lights) up top. With that will be the pull chain for the horns. Likely a bulkhead fitting of some sort? Never looked at how those are ran on the big rigs. :unsure: For sure will be adding a set...

That truck just looks "smooth". Nice work ZZ (y)

If I could plug in to the Matrix I'd download your body working skills 😁. BTW- I also can't image what my brain would do driving through that bone-yard. That must be both amazing and hard at the same time LOL

That is one "classy" rat. Looks so right.

Thanks Coup! 😆 x 2! Trust me Gene I'll be considering that for sure. Right off the bat I know it'd have to be real thin so that will be "use limiting" to some degree. As it is, I'll be making a small thin (dense) pad for the back of my head 😵‍💫🤪

Thanks Bob. Seeing the stage where it is now makes me so very glad I had decided to raise the roof on the truck. I'm wanting to come up with a cool idea of where to set sunglasses and such. Maybe an overhead 'rib' in the middle of the roof (front to back)? TBD... I've got an idea about a dome...

:ROFLMAO: That is finer looking than any shrubbery for sure!

Hey Gene! It would indeed. My brain is churning on the continued design there. I'm thinking hard on a simple but smooth way to have a spot/s for things like sunglasses, etc. A rib down the middle of the roof? Dunno just yet. Then there's a backup camera for hooking up trailers. :unsure: Was...

Just got caught up on the build. That is super top shelf work sir. Looks so very cool. (I all of the sudden feel more cramped in my '58 :D.) Absolutely love that grill. Keep it up! 🍻

Thanks guys. Speaking of a clock I found this at an antique store and it spoke to me :). The swivel mounting make this an easy choice since I'm not exactly sure where it's going yet.

Well I've had some time to work on the overhead console and have it just about there. Front panel all riveted in. The empty hole was an engine hours gauge that didn't clear quite good enough with the air lines coming up so I'll figure out something else to put in there.

Doesn't it though??? Really unique. Cut the car in half behind the door and the back half could be the front end of another futuristic crazy rat....

:cool:🍿 This is gonna be way too cool.

Well, I've drifted back! Sure have missed this forum and will try do make it back more often! Hope you all have been doing well. My physical health is back to full speed ahead and the house build is way too slow but coming along nicely. On the rat side I've finally started working on the '30...
