Nice, you will need either the RoG long hood or stretch out the snap kits short hood.

Just looked!do have a RoG kit,could use it.snap kit and a old 925 (I think) Could put them all together and have one full kit. still too cold to be in the shop, 45 out there now could not stand no longer. I disk like the cold!! You think all of these will work together??? Oh still have that box of sleeper you sent me.could use some of the mercury sleepers as well.

Nice choice for a model project! Although the snap kit frame is simplified the die work on cab & interior is excellent, combine those with more detailed frame and you've got a great starting point. Snap kit gives you a good 3406 engine either for this project or swapping out in another truck, I used one in a Transtar 4300.

Use a RoG frame,hood. Remove sleeper from snap cab and fill in hole. build new sleeper.

Me too!! Been looking at this for some time. First need too clear the bench,3 years back logged. Spent last night looking at kit's, think I may go with the RoG. it has every thing needed. it may be a little older kit,but would save on cutting chopping.Will look again tonight. there's not that many things extra as I can see. did a mock up,the RoG hood just about fits the Monogram cab. by the way the truck in the photo what year is it?? what year is the monogram snap??
