Default It's ALIVE, big, bad, and green... "The Hulkster"

After a long break from “The Hulkster”, I finally decided to complete what I had started. First, I had to fabricate a front bumper/servo mount. It is made from 1/8” aluminum with ¼” dia. Aluminum rod. I finished it off with a couple of coats of “Grabber Green” paint for good looks.



For the rear I used an aluminum bumper that wasn’t being used, and after some paint it fits right in.



That just left me with wiring up the Super Rooster to the Speed Gem Sapphires, and setting up the steering servo. Here are some poser pics of the completed truck I took at work today.






Now I just need to see if I have the brass to run it on the rocks??? If not, I may have to part with it, because I can’t seem to enjoy a “Shelf Queen”… Only time will tell….

The purple on the gear boxes is Testors model paint. The green on the bumper and scres on the gearcases is automotive engine paint. The frame is powdercoated green.
