IH 9300 eagle update 8/25

[cowboysevens]

i started this one about 5 months back using a stock 4300 kit, a 9300 hood and batterybox/ steps from eric at ppvintage.com , and an IH eagle 60" stand up i got off evilbay. i stole a 3406 cat from the revell snap pete kit.im using the tanks and set of wheels from an italeri western star. and i stretched the frame to acomadate the big sleeper. im going for an old school truck with a couple custom aditions. im putting a set of large vortex air cleaners on and have shaved the stock head light buckets so i can put a set of "j" bracket headlights also from ppvintage. i made a drop visor for it but not sure if i like it or not. it will be pulling the new moebius 53' reefer great dane. any suggestions always welcomed B)





















i also got the 3406 cat all fit in it

here is some pics with the seminole stripes all painted, lol i got a couple spots that the line didnt turn out perfect but its getting a black outline so it will be covered. i am also painting the tanks to match white with turquoise ends. im still not sure if im gonna bmf the breathers and visor or paint them to match.

I thought that I had commented on your project here. But evidently not. Let me say I really like what you have done so far. It looks really nice. I am looking forward to seeing eh whole rig finished!

Looking good. Looks as if may need a lower cab strip above the battery boxes. Some with marker lights would look sharp.
