Thanks man! It will get a similar treatment as the Bronco, simple, clean, and somewhat good looking!

Nice work so far! It should look sweet white. You'll find that @tw!ll's stuff is very versatile! I run his stuff on a couple of my rigs.

Thanks man, I just threw the dice and hoped it would line up right. It fits so perfect thanks again. I wonder if the honcho sliders will work.

A little progress, all it needs is a motor and the electronics are pretty much done. The body still needs paint and stickers. Please excuse my crappy paint skills and tape job...window masks are still on.

Throw me a measurement from the outside of the frame to the lip of the body. I'll check it out
