Hello Neil,
Thank you for this interesting project.
I did a deep search on your truck for more information, and I finished the 3D and rendering.
You can find my first entry with a detailed description.
Hope you like it.

thanks for the clarification.
The 24x9 and 24x15 are inches (diameter x width). Once you add tires to that, the total tire/ wheel diameter is around 30".
Hello Neil2124, I have a simple question about the tires you mentioned, 24x9 front and 24x15 rear, which measures are in which unit of measure? inches or others?
I prefer no paper sketches. I am looking for something in a computer program so it could edited (color combinations, modifications/ edits, etc.) to achieve the final look. However a great idea can be converted to a drawing and allow those things to be accomplished. The final design will be an integral part of the truck build.
Hi! What are you looking for, a concept even if it is a sketch on paper?
(because the quality of the drawing does not matter but the quality of the idea) or Do you want a realistic representation of your model, with some conceptual theme in which you can be guided!? or just Letting yourself be impressed by the details in render, and not by the feasibility of the project?

Great Info Neil. Will start working on the design.
1941 International Cabover (COE) K-5. Frame I have purchased (https://roadstershop.com/product/full-chassis/1967-72-c10-truck-spec-chassis/). Initial thoughts on wheels are 24x15 on back and 24x9 on the front.
can you give me required dimension for make the modal of truck e.g. Track Width, wheel base, and height and size wheel which you are using. its look good with some little modification it will look perfect.
Thanks. Design direction is retro outside/ modern inside and under. I am open to ideas, but do want to represent this as a hot rod and showcase its uniqueness. The cab is the only original piece that I want to keep untouched (if possible). Doors are suicide, front windshield cranks open to allow air flow, but want to keep that look. I am good blowing the whole rear up for the right design. Hope that helps.
Hi Neil, That&
;s one good looking truck. I have a few questions: What&;s the design direction: is it retro, modern or futuristic? Are there any panels or dimensions that should remain untouched?

What I don&;t like about the rear fender - The size of the space it takes up on the backend. I feel it is too bulky. With that bulky size it also affects the transition of the fender and bed. I have in house fabricators who can modify the bed as needed once I find a look I like. This vehicle will be able to sit on the ground, so the rear bed will be tubbed (probably all the way across which could lead to making some storage areas). Ideas on the bed slats are either new age carbon fiber or some exotic wood too make it stand out.

I just added pics around the truck sitting on jacks now. Let me know if I need to add anything. Chassis is brand new in the crate from Roadster Shop in IL if that helps with any design issues.
In what aspect that makes you did not like the rear wheel fender? If theres a reason that we could know, maybe we can deliver better results that match with ur expectation
Thanks for the suggestion on the adventure van, but this will be an old school hot rod. It will be made to go fast and look good. Potential show (SEMA) quality due to the rareness of the vehicle.
Dear Neil, Greetings for the day! I personally feel that this vehicle can be a very good adventure van. The rear hood can be utilised for foldable bed arrangement, mini coffee table, a hidden drover type kitchen arrangement (which can be pulled out from vehicle to outside. There can be places for 2 bicycle mountings. The top can be a store for either a Kayak or a Tent for night adventure. So let me know your comments please. Thanks & Regards HrishikeshSD.
I will upload more pictures today.
I added a 2nd and 3rd place prize
it is not particularly stimulating for a designer to work when he knows that there is only one award and many participants. It would be better to have three smaller ones than one. Unfortunately it is not possible the award to be split now. Maybe next time...
Great Project Neil. Keep adding images front and back. So we have reference to build the 3D. Thanks
