Tim, Nice work on the hoods! Do you have any plans to get any of them cast in resin? I certainly would be interested in the EXHD and some of the others that you have done. Best Regards Dave
Tim, I hope you son't mind me asking a couple of questions regarding the 352 builds. The bracket the holds the gear lever seems to be a bit tall so the flat part passes through the cab floor about 1/16" to 3/32". Do you reduce the height of this bracket, or maybe I have things in the wrong place?? Hmm thats a thought!! The lasrt question relates to the diesel tanks and how you go about deatailing of the tank straps and the protective rubber strip. Thanks Dave
Dave, I do reduce it, almost so that the platform sits on the solid bracket, with the two extensions nearly removed completely. Somehow, as a kid I was able to get the shift tower to fit without any modification. Hmmmm?
If you look at the cab-tilted pics of the Patriot - you will notice the shift lever is missing.. I broke it off and it is INSIDE the cab rattling arround. :(
Tim, Thanks for posting details of this very interesting build. I am using this one and the previous 352 you built as reference for a 352 that I am building myself. The little tips like removing 1/16" of the front of the frame are very usefull, as are your Pacemaker reference photo's. Many Thanks again for taking the time and trouble to post all the details of the builds. Dave
Tim, Very Impressive builds! Thanks for posting details and photo's, the information contained in them is invaluable to a buildier such as myself. Both the trucks look at home in the snowy conditions with their 6 wheel drive. I am starting to collect my parts together for a couple of 367's. One will be a 6 x 6 and the other a HH tri-drive. Thanks Again. Dave Bates
Please wait...
