decided to paint the body up a lil... but now it needs some stickers for the door and bedsides. I think a couple Dorkstar and ORCRC stickers would be just perfect for it;)

now i just need to weld a couple more support bars in and paint up the frame and tubing:cool:

wow dude thats awssome is thsis gonna be a prerunner type truck?

no matter what man this thing looks bad ***"thumbsup"

not really... just my scale crawler basher... i need to take some more pics, it has bedsides at the moment and somewhat of a bedfloor.

Who makes the tundra body? Still available?

Awesome. I think it's missing something up top. Like a rack and some big ole lights lol. Maybe more tube around the front too.

I'm still looking for where the servo is mounted?

Yeah, me too.

Looks pretty sweet so far."thumbsup"

wow that truck looks very unique and i like the fact that you cant see the electronics meaning the servo now it looks real . great work..

Cool truck! I think the tubed look makes the truck.

What did you use to bend the square tubing? Great looking truck too.

I think I might see the servo
