my tow wrecker truck
 

after seeing a few vids with krazy joes tow truck in it i decided to build my own one. so far ive built most of the tow part but i still need some stuff to finish it off like threaded rod some rubber and chains which i have coming from a mate these are the only pics i have right now but i would like to say a big thanks to krazy joe for building his one so i could get a good idea for my build.

A Tow Truck for RC cars!? RC's dont break down....

on second thought, good idea =D

Re: my tow wrecker truck
 

one of the guys i go crawling/trailing with might have to disagree with you there his breaks down near enough all the time but iam only building this for fun iam not sure it will be any good at towing lol

Ya that's why i said "on second thought...". RC's break all the time and a tow truck is a good idea =) I was just being a smart ass lol

Re: my tow wrecker truck
 

this is a cool idea guy at my shop is building on now from an scx waiting to see how it comes out hey rember they thought rc crawling was crazy lol

Re: my tow wrecker truck
 

if i didnt see krazy joe`s one i wouldnt have thought about building onemine but it going to be fun when someone breaks down and ask`s for a lift and i turn around and say that will be so much money per mile lol.

little update aswell. chopped the rear of the frame as it was getting in the way and i also think ive found something to use for the fabric peice but i need the metal rod first before i cut it to shape oh and i might be adding a winch but iam not sure yet.

made these up just to see if they would work or not and it looks like they will do the job but i wont find out till the metal rod gets here forgot they will need some cutting to size though
