About one year ago i decieded to build a 1.55 scale truck.
The base should be a Tam. Clodbuster witch will be modified.

Goggle was very helpfull in finding pics an drawings for the truck.
so i started building an exocage made from hydraulic brake tubs.

Dude, for a first try be proud! That is a great start!

Even if down the road you decide you are not satisfied with it, it will be a good learning experience and help you to make the next one better in both function and looks.
