|  King Kong '80s monster truck (short vid added)
Here's something that I've been working on a vintage 80's monster truck KING KONG. It has a BLADE SMC 4.5 EX chassis a vintage 1/25 amt BIGFOOT body and a rollbar made from Styrene and wheels and tires from a 1/24 monster truck model. The other truck is a static BIGFOOT that I'm also still working on.  Last edited by DVS; 09-21-2011 at 05:05 PM. |

So which one is the one that runs? The gray one? Just wanting to be clear.

Yes it was the gray one. This is what it looks like now. I'm still working on it.  Not running yet just posing for the camera.  Last edited by DVS; 07-24-2011 at 08:05 PM. |

Hey I am just wondering, what is the point of putting aluminum over the driveshaft? I have seen so many people do it, but never understood why.
