I saw the HW C0CKNEY CAB, and liked the way it looked. So I bought two at .97 each. The wheelbase was to long, even for a four gear. Here's what it looks like so far, after being sectioned.
It was a two piece body, so after all the cutting, there were four pieces to put together.

Very nice, tell a little bit about how you sectioned the body and filled it. If you don't mind.

I didn't remove the body from the HW frame. It was easier to do the cuts, because of the two piece body. I cut just in front of the roof scoop, then cut a section from the front half of the body. These pics are right after the body pieces were put back together (didn't think of taking pics when it was in four pieces). You can see the seam, where it was joined, in the center of the door (the other lines are just decal remnants in the stock door cracks)....It's sitting on an AW Super lll chassis, that chassis won't be used for this.
Here you can see the seam going across the roof.
After a little body work, it's almost there.

Hey Sweet,
Cab is looking good......... looking forward to seeing the finished product. Can't ever get enough pics here !
Saw in other post your new to HO, but since have mentioned 4g's & Super III's. Both these chassis from AW, along with others from them. And those made by other mfg's are used in the proxy racing program run through the site.
Hope you might consider joining in on the racing ! Race coverage is here on site. And seeing ones cars as well as others at events is always a kick.........
......... Peter
