I'm new to the hobby, although I'm into 1/64 diecast trucks too.
From that experience, I know I suck at painting and plastic body work.

I've got a King Hauler coming in, and need some work done on the body;
Remove the headlight boxes and fix the fenders to look more like a Peterbilt,
and shorten up the sleeper cab to the 36 inch version.

Then I've got a specific paint job in mind for it (I've got pics)
Basically it's overall dark green with 3 yellowish/light green stripes carried
along the hood sides thru the cab and onto the sleeper.

Anyone out there up for the job?
I'll pay well for good work!

You have to remember that this all the parts frame,axles,body parts and so on,not just the cab.
He is a experinced auto painter 36 years so he knows what he is doing.
I hope this helps
