Yes guys, it will be there. Had to strip the paint today, and I'm working an a few boring little things here and there. Still have to finish the winch, headlights, taillights, rock lights, entire interior, inner fenders, etc. I'm about where Gerrish was 2 weeks ago. Thanks for the great replies, makes me want to go work on it right now.....

Well see I am debateing on going. never done a comp before and All i have built is my scaler that I have no idea if it can be run in a comp or not. I just did it for fun so i want to come to the comp but I dont want to be given shit because I built a truck that may or may not be able to be run.

Post up a picture of it and it's specs, I can probably tell you if it's legal. I'm designing the courses at the comp and I am on the scale rules commitee. If you're in Billings you've gotta go, it's a blast. C'mon....I'm driving 10 hours to be there..... |

Wow, it's been awhile since I've updated this thing. I've been working on this daily since our last scale comp. I completely stripped the paint on the frame because the primer I used sucked. I got the skids made. Dash and steering wheel. Interior is getting there. I have a driver, but I'm not ready to reveal him quite yet. I have the inner fenders done and I'm real close to painting the frame again. Then it's on to wiring the lights and installing all the switches. I should be close to done by next weekends scale comp. Thanks for looking. Tim. Last edited by War Pig; 11-26-2009 at 10:18 AM. |

It just keeps getting better. Every time I look at this thread I think I should just throw my (unfinished) junk in the trash. Pat |

Thanks guys. I THINK I got the chassis all ready for paint and assembly. Sand blasted it last night and shot it with primer. Then 4 coats of metallic silver. I just need to spray the doors red and clear the whole thing. I should be able to start assembly on Wednesday. |
