Will's dump truck

[FreddyGearDrive]

Will43209 wanted a good starter truck for his son. We decided on a rear wheel drive,14"box,65t motor & a after trany gear reduction.the cab will be yellow.
So this is what I have so far.

Instead of spending the big bucks on a reduction unit,decided to freddy one together.:D

Plus there tamiya gears.
Then did a Freddy on the fuel tank.

Nice fred...

[rockNmayhem]

Not a whole lot else to say other than good lookin truck Fred. Do have to agree with Lynn though. I for sure coulda predicted this wrong by thinking it would come out black.

[will43209]

Man Freddie, that looks great! He's gonna love it.he's 10, I told him if he did good in school, I'd get him one. He did, so now Dad has to pay up. :) great job on her Freddie! :)

[AZLIGHTNING]

Wow Great looking Dump truck, Congrats To your Son Will on the Grades and on the Awesome Truck.

[Espeefan]

Great looking truck! Man, if I could have had one of these when I was 10. I probably would have done a little better in school. Ha ha. I turned out just fine. Now I have a good job, so I can have toys like this anyhow, but I sure had to wait a few years. Kids these days have it made! :D

[FreddyGearDrive]

Well I'm glad you boys like er,now as long as Will's son likes it? All is good!
Nathan, If my dad used this type of motivation driver on me as a kid.
I'de of been a brain surgeon or something along them lines.Not some old wore out mechanic/landscaper,buildin adult toys just to keep hotdogs & pb&j on the daily menu.
Hopefully today can get the screw drive completed,& mount down the dump box.
Then figure out the tailights,was going to use stock rear bumper. But after holding it in place & getting a good look at it.:eek: I'm gunna have to talk Will into one of my taillight plates made for a d/truck.:D
Guys thanks for the comments & complements.
& of course,Thanks for lookin!

Oh,& for you gents that can't wait to see more black trucks,There are 5 waiting to be painted. 3 or 4 of them are going to be black:p

[spudd]

Freddy as a brain surgeon....... That's a sight I just don't ever want to see!!!!!
That just scares me!!!!!!

[tc1cat]

I knew you couldn't go very long without another black truck:rolleyes: All kidding aside, black rc trucks are not all that bad. Just don't want another in 1:1 scale, real pain to keep clean! And they have to be clean to look good.

[Radiowave Trucking]

Another sharp looking truck!

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Looking Great Freddy True craftsmanship for sure..

[Papabaer]

I think Wills son is lucky when he get´s so a nice "starttruck"

Locking fantastic!

[Bigrigger]

I'm glad you turned out this way instead of a brain surgeon. I'd hate for you to Freddy-up someone's brain! lol

The truck looks really good! I suppose it is only yellow because you're giving it to someone else. :) Can't wait for more.

I'll have to negotiate something like this with my parents..... :D

[will43209]

Yes he is! :) We looked at these trucks for about 3 years, until I finally decided to get some. Its a great motivational tool for my kids anyway. This boy was failing big time. (How do you fail gym???). But he's been getting A's and B's now! :) So I'm happy too. I told my 5 year old, if he didn't get kicked out of preschool I'd get him something nice. He's been getting up at 6 every morning, brush his teeth, wash his face AND get dressed by himself! Then he'll come wake me up, saying he don't wanna be late for school! :) So he's getting a semi custom Knight Hauler. Of with gear reduction. :) So now Dad wil have someone to play with. :). Take care.

[FreddyGearDrive]

Boy....everyones a funny Guy! Maybe the next one will be pink.
Thanks for the complements!
Ok Will,take a look,& see if it's ok to put in a box.

That´s right Will. I think everybody have a time in his life when he is failing -
I had have this time too :D and it´s a wonderful idea to give him a price if he get better. And in addition he gets also a beautiful hobby. Perhaps he build his next Truck himself

[will43209]

Yeah Papabaer, he's doing a lot better and maybe we willl build one someday. This hobby is fun, and it'll keep the kids out of trouble. There's a big difference in kids who have hobbies and sports, then those that don't. I just want to do something we can all enjoy as a family. :) Take care.

[will43209]

Hey Freddie, it does need the boxes and I like your rear lights too. :) is there a place to put a pintel hook? I'm getting a lowloader, with a jeep he can pull. Its looking real good Freddie!

[FreddyGearDrive]

Yea Will,As a matter of fact there is a place.

[fhhhstix]

Travis

[Cossett]

It's probably a shelf queen in a cabinet now and he doesn't want to get finger prints on it or break open the air tight seal.....

Cheers Tracy
