Does anybody know where I could find scaled drivers and some seats for custom built 1/10 scale Clod based monster trucks? The 1/6 scale Gi Joes are way to big but regular Gi joes are to short. What is in between or do I have to custom make something. Any info greatly appreciated.

You could always make yourself some seats . I built my own in the scale rig I'm doing now . Here is a link to my seat in my build . Badd's Wreckluse " Harry " Spyder
As for a driver I'm using a WWE 6" tall doll .

You can check on e-bay and find mego figures they are about 8' or go to Elite toy store on line and check out the action figures called wild ones they are just a little bit smaller. They work very well !

The cell phone seat is one idea I had but not sure how I am going to mount it. I will probly just use that any ways since I have one. As for the figure I was looking at the 6'' tall wrestling figures but they all have some type of costume. Maybe I will look for an undertaker figure. LOL Thanks for all the good ideas. keep em coming everyone.

Just use a short G.I. Joe and give him hand controls.

I'll just rip his legs off and put some paddles behind the wheel for gas and brake. It'll be like a crippled Randy Brown. Then I will have to put alittle lift in for his wheel chair. LOL

I looked on Elite and the wild ones figures are pretty cool looking. The little atv guy has a full suit and helmet so I am probly going to get a couple and see how it works out. I called them Friday night and asked how tall they were and the lady said between 6 and 7 inches. That is just about right for the size seat I am using. Thanks everyone for all the info on this stuff. I hope to have these trucks done soon so I can get some pics.

I found some very interesting sites with Action figures, national enteriainment collectables online, they have lots of cool ones.

This one has some awesome ones too, but you have to find a vendor in the list cause they only distribute to stores ect.

It 'd be cool to have Hellboy driving an RC.
