Thank you so much guys!! it gets better once you find out the details........
the reason for the three different wheels is simple, the front set are one ton wheels and it has daul wheels on the rear. (lotta work went into narrowing the trailers frame) so i could add daul rear wheels... guess you could say i mini tubbed it to get the clearance i needed to use the stock trailer fenders...
the rear tires (white spokes) we also modifyed kit wheels that were 5 lug, i have a few sets still in resin of them so i cleaned up the 5 lugs and added 8 lug wheels, on a bagged tag axle just incase it is needed for some extra weight....
i will add a few more pics here also showing the engine details i did also, plug wires, wire loom from alum can,eninge oil fill tub,trans dipstick,engine dipstick,alt wired and starter wired all ran to the lower side of firewall on driver side.
The hood i cut out then found a cool scoop and grafted it in....... the living 1/4s are piece's used from the open road camper, like the stove heavily modyfied just the chrome piece's kit item rest scratchbuilt.


Here's the narrowed frame inprogress

i built the new sink vanity, using the chrome sink and top i added sides and a back.

even put a air compressure on the motor after some work, found a pully and belt system that fit the build

even scratchbuilt a core support for it starting with a index card and went from there.

Thank you so much everyone! and it feels great to be back at the bench!!! many more crazy ideas to come!! like why i put a hitch on this one, its almost finished and will post the pics of it as well.......
