Well I have got a bunch more done to the Classic Condo. Frame is now painted and I made a custom drop visor for it also added 8 rear cab lights and a mirror stainless deck plate it is coming along I have the radio gear in it and a rc4wd light unit in it for the break lights and blinkers I am waiting on the rear light plate so cant finish it yet.

Getting there, Paul. Already it looks great! I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the RC4WD light kit. Are the blinkers activated by a separate channel, a limit switch, or something else?

Thanks Nate.. The unit is sort of a pain in the butt, but it is what I use till I get a sound kit in trucks you can get them off ebay for 20 bucks and it plugs between the servos and esc and gets its info from the receiver.

Russ's new polished alum 5th wheel covers are sweet looking and fit perfect and my custom rear light panel I had Russ do came out perfect..
