Next to do:
- Cabin's fastening
- Inner fenders
- Flatbed

Other concerns:
- Need more firm foams to front tires
- Front bumper sucks

Crazy rig - The cab makes me think it should be a 6x6...

Re: Divi's Mercedes-Benz
 

I think its going to be kinda like trial truck with 4ws, so thats why 4x4 for now.. But my ideas always change fast :D

Re: Divi's Mercedes-Benz
 

Changed cabin mounting system.. gotta raise it few mm from front. Flatbed also started and rearbumper changed :)
