Toy Drive Stake Body Truck C Cab
I made five trucks for the December toy drive and one for me. The inspiration was this C Cab truck from Canadian Woodworking.

I have to make these for kids to play with so some things get added and other things taken away to make them a little safer. I beefed up the bumper, the stake body (added more side board parts), the fenders, and made the dash and cab posts in one piece. I removed the shifting lever and the headlights and moved the steering wheel the left side.

No, we drive on the right.JPG wrote:They drive on the left side of the road Up Thar?

The actual plans show the steering wheel in the correct position, it is only the photo at the top that shows it reversed. One suspects that a graphic designer reversed the photo for esthetic reasons and hoped no one would notice the discrepancy.
