i took two radio shack monster patrol bodies and i'm making one.
the wheelbase is gonna be about 13"-13.5". i plan on putting lights on it and other scale items.

JUSTCUZ · 07-25-2008, 08:22 PM

that thing is freakin huge!!!

danielk · 07-25-2008, 09:40 PM

im doing the body work for him.
yeah, im teaching him the ropes. helping him out since he does the same for me. looks different now since i cut some more of the 2nd cab off and got the two halves glued together with styrene.

goobs · 08-04-2008, 09:35 PM

well i finally got the body back and i just painted it "rust" so ill check that in the morning and then paint the bumpers "aluminum" and then the rest of the truck black cuz thats what i got. ill post pics of the body in the am.
my axles and other stuff shouold be here wed. so expect more progress and pics then.

goobs · 08-05-2008, 08:26 PM

alright well the body still needs a couple coats of krylon fusion burgundy, and the bumpers need another coat a matte clear, but the wheels are done- oh they're painted w/ krylon fusion sunbeam yellow.
also is a before and after of my narrowed redrocks. only did two - im gonna try the dually look.
and a BIG THANKS GOES TO MUTINY22 FOR MY BOWTIE RINGS!

You one hell of a nice job joining the 2 cabs together, however, why stop there? Why dont you glue in styrene and correct those monster trucked fender wells you have going on there and make this into a killer 1.9 tow rig? You have the skills to fix the fenders if you can join the cabs to gether, now ya just need to step it up again
