Default 1BJB's high lift and white bone trailer

Click the image to open in full size.

This arrived so since everyone in my office is in LAS VEGAS for a trade show I decided to start painting it.

Choosing a color wasnt easy, but after seeing a real f-350 for the state park police, I decided GREEN would be a good color. I dont really have anything green (other then the Trekker which is sublime) so I went to the LHS and found this Metallic Forrest Green. I primed it up and laid a few coats, I am actually in the middle of painting the bed, so here are a few pics and I gotta go put some more coats on! Enjoy! 1BJB...

ofcourse you got a f350, why wouldn't you, you have every other scale rig.

J/K, nice color choice.

Run, Forrest, run!

er, wait a minute... DON'T RUN, FORREST! DON'T RUN!

I like the green. If I hadn't done my XC KBF in green, that would have been my choice, too. Can't wait to see how it turns out

Nice to see a body buld-up / paint job. Enough chassis threads for now. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out in the end. Looks good so far.

that color is bueatiful(spelling). I love the idea of a forrest rescue truck, different than just another F-350 pickup. This one could actually have a purpose in life lol.

it has been a though actually, I was thinking of making a work cage in the rear or something if I do. It might be a cool theme...seems alot of my builds have themes lately . I have the grill, bumpers, and roll bars being stripped of thier chrome right now. They 2 are going to be Green to match the body.

Wait to you guys see the wheels this is getting They are BEAUTIFUL

Well guys I dove into the kit last night, got quite a bit done, here are just a few pics. I am not going to go crazy with them because I am doing a review/build up of the High Lift for Jason for the front page so keep your eyes peeled after this weekend for that. Anyways on to some pics

Got the axles together too, I only locked up the rear for now...Im not really sure what the purpose of this thing is going to be yet Although it is nice to be able to lock and unlock them with just a small grub screw.

Well thats it for now guys, stay tuned for more
