How did you do the steering stabilizor? Looks like a ball point pen tube and rubber boot just over the link?

I love the scale "rust" effect on the body of the flatfender. Live in the rustbelt that may be the most realistic of them all! |

I've been scaling for many years and always like seeing what people come up with for scale details. I've made all this stuff. I left out all the bumpers, sliders and chassis even though technically they are homemade scale parts, anyway onto the accessories. RTI Ramp Roof Rack Hydraulic ram Hi-lift Trailer hitch and ball mount Interior with handmade dash, seats and floor. Fuel Cell with dimple dyed mount |

A lot of cool stuff, there is so many talented members. I wish I had those skills. I really like the gloves in the recovery kit and the bag it all fits in awesome work
