Default My First TF2 Build

Hi Guys,
I'm really enjoying my new job as a Project Manager at RC4WD. Great group of guys and gals i work with. I'm still learning all the process of the job as well as learning about our product.

This being said, I'm building my first Trailfinder 2. I've been working on it for the last couple weeks. Mainly focused on the body work first. I bobbed the bed a little, did some minor clearance mods and paint/polished it up. Next step is working on the driveline and adding some suspension goodies as well as electronics.
I'll post up more images and info as I go along and feel free to ask any questions...I may not have all the answers yet, but i'm learning

Thanks,
Rich

Hey Rich, you've come a long way since the Losi Mini! Your build is looking great!! I was up at Kelly Lunsford's shop last week and we were wondering who you signed on with? I'm sure you're going to be a great asset for RC4WD!!!
Ernie,
