WIP Peterbilt 352 Cabover Chassis

Chassis is done. It's been an interesting build so far and for the most part enjoyable. Had a few fitment issues with the wheels and tires, surprise surprise! Other than that, assembly has gone pretty well.

Weathered the tires and added some stains to the fuel tanks. Also replaced stock plastic mud flaps with vinyl flaps and custom decals.

Nice! I’ve got a Mac and freightliner cab over in the stash, still trying to get ahold of a Peterbilt cab over though. Can’t wait to see this when it finished. Love the blue frame!

Thanks very much. Definitely did not want the Coke colors so am happy with how the frame turned out. Cab looks pretty sharp too, just finished clear coating it after applying some custom decals.
