If thats what you pump out as a newbie, I think you're gonna be fine here. Looks good, but I think you will find that body is going to need alot more trimming.

The drifter looks fun too.

WOORD! Nice job on a newbie built truck, you wouldn't even notice you were a newb until you mentioned it. Great build!

If only all the newbs were more like you....

Awsome work for a newbie.I think you need to start selling lessons to other newbies here ***cough**ilrcrc 1&2**cough.I bet that rti ramp weighs 20 pounds.

Thumbs up

Nice work! Looks like a fun and capable truck. One question though- Are you sure that RTI ramp can take the weight of the truck? It looks a little weak. It might need some gussetting- perhaps fully box it in? Triangulate the triangles?

;)

Cool pic!

Yeah, I was being a bit sarcastic about the RTI ramp. It could hold my 1:1 Unimog's weight.
