Well I took on a project of doing a big rig. I hadn't done one since I was a teenager, but thought what the hell.... This is another pandemic build... I did a mild custom on it... I lowered the suspension about 5 scale inches, I narrowed the front axle as it was way to wide (front tires stuck outside the cab). I stretched the frame about 4 scale feet as it just didn't look right out of the box. I did a little rear frame fill in to tidy it up... Step 1.... I could not get the dame frame straight... so I made a quick jig.... game changer..... I'll make a bunch of replies to this for the pics....

Awesome build on your Frightliner Grant. I see you fixed most of the issues with this kit. Great job filling the seams on the cab and leaving the rivets on. Did you know that the head lights are to high?

Did you know that the head lights are to high? I had no idea about the head lights... lol.... it was a fun build... definitely brought me back to the early years of building.. lol.... just with better end results...
