Default Grapple/Boom Truck (VIDEO's)

Hey everyone,

Well I have started another build,I was asked to build this truck for a company.They use these everyday and they wanted a scale down version of the real truck.
I had to add a sleeper to put the pump and electronics.
And they wanted the stock King hauler body:
Here is what they want


Here is the Boom/Grapple:


And here is what I got done so far:








And here is the pump mounted:


Thats it for now,
Thanks for looking.

WOW , I dont feel so bad now. I thought I was the only one that would spend ungodly amounts of money on a RC build.

This is going to be REALLY cool. Cant wait to see it done and some video.

Keep up the good work.
