Still waiting for my truck to get here. So I tested the light bar on a old body. Happy with the way it came out I have 20.00 bucks in the hole thing. Rc police lights - YouTube

I was bidding on 2 kits on eBay for the scx10 honcho because i would like to have the 12.3 wheelbase The kits went for 305.00 or higher. So after seeing that Tower Hobbies was sold out and amainhobbies was sold out as well and not willing to pay 389.95 + shipping on eBay . I order a new one from Rc Planet. I believe that the only kit that is available now is the Dingo but the wheelbase is 11.4 So I got the RTR honcho I think I will be very happy with it.

Thanks to the great posts on this forum i have made some amazing tow shackles May have to trim the top of the shackle but we will see once the rear bumper gets here.

Shackles look great . You will want to trim the ends off more if you want the shackles to swing (or have them point any way but down). You'll see what I mean when you get them on your bumper.

Those shackles are awesome. How did you make them? I'm not a fan of the flares but then I know lots of people like them.
