Got me a Watermellon Head..

[Tamiya Cowboy]

Well I managed to pick me up a new built MAN off a guy in a trade that he built and only ran once never even hooked a trailer to it. Got it fully loaded with a MFU and a gear reduction in it. I plan on pulling the MFU out and sticking it in one of my Pete's or IH cab overs that has no MFU and pulling the GRU out and putting a 55 and a 6 tooth in it with new 645 servos and a castle sidewinder ESC a few other hop ups like a power pack behind the cab and red and white front bumper with a hitch and guard on the front and a hitch on the rear and running it..

Here is the picks..

Nah Not my sort of taste I am going to leave it black strip the MFU and do the red/white hash bumper and the power pack and bull guard and that will be it for the most part..

This build should be interesting... Ill be watching!

if you want it to look classic european, you should paint the frame red or a light gray.

[Tamiya Cowboy]

are you going to make your own bull guard? stock Tamiya one does not look good on it, i have one, so dont need it until I get an American Truck.

yeah i am not a big fan of the tamiya guard even on a US style cause they dont look like a US style I think they are more Euro.

Someday Aaron this one is at the bottom of the list I have 4 trucks in the build right now I have only posted 2 :D
