| Re: 1950 Chev Panel Truck I used a piece of .25" thick aluminum, cut out a slot for the servo, mounted the servo to the plate and mounted the plate to the chassis. I can try and get some pictures up tomorrow some time.

That's what I'd call a "no flex" servo mount, seriously beefy |

I could have just used two tabs but I wanted the frame rails to be braced too. |

I've been noticing that this truck was starting to get a little heavy, so I weighed it.....Just over 7 lbs. |

I like your 50's panel truck. Can't wait to see it finished. Thinking of trying a Parma 57 chevy truck body. |

Are you going for Scale Looks or Trail Performance (or most likely a mixture of the two)? It's coming along great and with every update I wish more that the coming Christmas Santa will deliver this VERY vehicle, EVEN IF IT WASN'T COMPLETE!!!! |

Trail performance is more important than the scale looks, but the more scale the better. I just hope I don't screw up the paint. It might be a little bit before I get to the paint. I need a new air brush. Maybe I'll have to use rattle cans. | |

You're really cranking up production on this one. What ever happened to "I have all winter"??? ( ) for leaving me in the dust! Even though I'm envious as hell over this one, I gotta say well done sir . "Trail performance is more important than the scale looks, but the more scale the better". Hell yeah! |

"( ) for leaving me in the dust!" This coming from the guy who had all year and still only has 2 trucks running. I'll have to find some other things to build this winter. Oh yeah, just ordered some super bright lights too. | |
