It will keep it stable while jumping

That is some pretty impressive work you do.

Did a few little jobs today.


I could not find any pictures online of the back of this truck with the top on so I had to get creative.


Since the transmission shifts smoothly I saw no need for a full size servo. I went to a 9g micro servo to save space and weight. Woohoo, full interior!

Body work is looking great so far, can't wait to see the interior

[TexasSP]

I have run out of witty comments for your builds noob, so I'll just say flocking awesome as always!

Keep it coming!

Love the canopy!

[03cobrakid]

Good idea on the servo mount for shifting!!! Top looks awesome!!

[03cobrakid]

How are you mouning the body now that you filled in the mounting holes on the body?

Not sure where I'm going to mount it, but I know how. Bolts. Probably up in the engine bay. The body won't need to be removable since I'm making the hood open.

Hey Rich, is there enough depth to the drop bed to cut out the tailgate and making it an opening gate like I did on my Highlift?




Looks like the handles could be files off pretty easy and something remade to replace them.

Not enough depth to open the gate :(

[neillarson]

That is what I thought might be the issue looking at the pictures. Thanks Rich.

I wish I had more work to show, but this will have to do for now. I started the interior. I'm not going for OMGGGGG, I just want something that will work.

[CrazyYOTA!]

I can't wait to see what you do with the engine compartment!

[pardonmyn00b]

Most of the major styrene work is done now.

[701 Technique]

Wheel wells look great

[heinie_21]

Noon, how do you get the styrene to hold a curve? I'm about to do some curved wells as well.

I cut the strip for the bent part and worked it in my hands for a minute or so. Just kept running it through my fingers, kinda like a sheet metal roller. And it doesn't have to be thick material for wheel wells. I used .030"
