Pixelhugger:
My 6 1/2 foot+ twins arrived this weekend as my dad was able to get away and haul them down my way on a road trip. We had to rent an Excursion since they wouldn't fit in his car.

Yesterday we trimmed the second side to it's finished shape. I couldn't resist propping the panels up to get a better idea of how it'll all look when done. This was probably not the smartest thing to do since I couldn't hold them very firmly in place, but luckily I was able to get a few pics without any catastrophes. So the images below show the sides placed within about a 1/2" of their final positions width wise. I'm not sure about the exact angle of their pitch vertically but it should be pretty close (the bottoms of the sides are set a few inches closer to each other than the tops in the final design.) While it looks as though the cab has been assembled in these pics, these are just balanced in place... nothing is holding them there, none of the interior structure has been made yet.

Spidermonkey- you've got me thinking about those dust washers now..... thanks for the kind words.

Arcade and Jav - :)
RetroACTIVE:
You must be so excited... that is just beautiful... totally exciting just to look at... not to mention how it will be when it will be up and running!
ChadTower:

That CP is spectacular... though, gotta say, us left handed spinner game fans are going to be a bit wonked.

I'm probably the only one, though.  I'm like Tigger.

"I'm like Tigger."

You bounce around and have a speech impediment?

PH, how much do the sides weigh (if you had to take a wild guess)???

All of a sudden, my lame black cab doesn't look so cool. :)
