here are some updated pics i dry mounted the cab in order to mount the chassis parts ,tanks and i weathered the front drivers mfu switch/step to match the rest of the truck and added the catwalk which is seen in the movie a few times .still have to add the numorous rusted licence plates and the 2 cab clearance lights and signals and the small convex mirror mounted on the hood so the driver can moniter the engine by the colour of exhaust smoke.thanks for looking and i have started to build the tanker for this truck combo so check back for updates
