Got the fuel and brake lines in place as far as I can go without the engine. So, I mounted the engine to the chassis and installed the wheels and tires. I will attach the brake lines to the wheels as well as to a scratch built proportioning valve. Took the brake booster from the kit and removed the vacuum assist. I built a piece to mount to the chassis and will run a line from the valve to the reservoir. I will also attach the fuel line to the engine. Still debating on a beehive filter addition.

I am not installing door cards either scratch built or from another kit. It will not go with my intent on the model. There is an extremely fine etching of the interior door in the kit, including handles. But it is so fine that it does not even worth mentioning. Since the cab will not be chopped, I decided to mockup the top panel piece and add resin door handles and window crank. When ready, I will attach to the door sides.
