Maybe not, but the metal rivets that hold 'em on sure do. Nice rust, JIA! (for a southern truck. For an Ohio truck, hack off everything south of the door handles.) Last edited by microgoat; 11-16-2007 at 05:35 PM. |

Actually it looks to be the unactice nest of either Polistes Carolina or Vespula squamosa Drury commonly know as Paper wasp or yellowjackets...

I had one of those in my Morris Minor, only it was the size of a basketball. I ran as fast as I could and still got hit 40 times. I still don't like wasps, and that was better than 10 years ago.

JasonInAugusta I've never really been a fan of your work period. I can't remember a time where I was like "Man JIA rig is nice" or "Man JIA has good rockcrawling skills" but today my friend I turn to a new chapter in my life. After seeing your rust skills I was.......WOAH!HOLD ON!...MMMMMann WOW! I couldn't belive that this truck was a model RC rockcrawling truck.Goodjob and I hope to meet you in person one day and see you and your "Rust" bucket(giggle,giggle) truck.Goodbye JasonInAugusta.
