cut the rest of the stock bumper off if you are going to make a desert racing style bumper for it

Well looks like the guy is never gonna show up to airbrush the thing, so I got myself an airbrush. I am gonna attempt it here tonight and see what happens. First I'm gonna get one coat of clear put on it and then try the paint job on a scrap body too.

One of the workers at my dad's painted the inside of the box with Gravel Gaurd. It was put on way too thick, but then again the truck is a crawler, so its just gonna get marked up anyway. I also put some Hitec decals on the headlights and the tailgate. Pics tomorrow when its bright out.

looks like you are having fun with the project. Did the truck start out as an RC vehicle, or was it a toy store toy that got mounted onto an RC chassis? It might make a good body for a scale project.

It started life as a Radio Shack Rammunition and then I took the body off and mounted it to my clodbuster and then I put it through these changes..
