Messing with glass mats and put on some 389 type pipe tips. Think everything is where it needs to be....still going to mess with the headlights.

Thanks Brett, I'm still learning. My new laptop actually runs it well with the Nvidia card.

Looks real good mate and I'd say you've got the mat files just right.

Looks real good mate and I'd say you've got the mat files just right. Thanks, and I think so too. Made it over to Lake City Peterbilt to see how my Flattop is doing. Not much done yet...but she's starting to look good. They have Paint, stacks, and the grill parts on. I keep ordering from www.thepetestore.com and shipping has been a little slow.

I'd give anything to know what the end configuration was for the mat files. I'm impressed. Nice rig's by the way. ;D

Well, I have three or so different glass mats for that 389, all set up differently. Windows set up like Jons 379 flattops, headlights, then the glass for the orange light bulbs are different too. Shoot me a PM if you want the values on them all. Ocean Trailer had a new Mac and a 1988 Kenworth K100 on their website. I am heading that way with a load, will have to go look at them, thinking about doing some dump work. EDIT Still on my way up to Ocean. I should be there in an hour. Sundown. Arrived, backed up to the dock, they will unload me in the morning. Morning, unloaded and time to look at this KW and the Mac. They let me drive around with the Mac to see how well it pulls...the K100 is a very nice truck for its year. Decided to go ahead and buy it, I've always wanted a nice cabover anyhow. Talked them down to $11,000 from $15,000. Bought the new Mac as well, still have a couple trips to finish with the Wabash though before I head out with the Mac. EDIT AGAIN: Got a load to Southern Peterbilt. Performed Pre Trip and filled out the paperwork. Fuel up before I head out. Pulling out, headin south. Photo from the 80s. Heading off into the sunset... Yet another EDITContinuing on my journey to the South. Time to pull over and rest for my 10 hours. Beautiful morning by the ocean, time to head back out. Through the Tunnel Time to break my wallet.... Another day gone, time to rest up and get up early in the morning. YET ANOTHER EDIT: Should I keep or ditch the rear steelies? And I'm also thinking about painting the tanks. Whaddya guys think?
