Thanks, Your truck is awesome also, I was going to do a modified Jeep cabbed truck but this Mack cab "fell" into my hands so I went with it.


Here is the trials truck I am working on right now, just got it rolling under its own power last weekend. My club is looking to organize a trials event this spring and I didn't want to beat the Mack up to much, just needs some finishing touches and sponsor decals






Here is the start of my current "new" build - cab is under the knife right now.

BTW where do you get the cabs, and beds or are they hand made?
