Thanks much I have just got back into doing LEDs because I found a guy that has them prewired and resisted and ready to go so it makes it so easy.

Thanks Much Tony I love this little truck and it drives so nice.. But I can't take credit for the building of the truck it all just the details and lights. I bought this truck off a great builder that got out of the hobby and called me up and offered it to me and I am honored to own a great truck like this from a outstanding builder.

I can't say anything about this truck that hasn't been said ! With that said it is another one of your top shelf builds that makes the rest of us want to step up our game. Great job and if it ever needs a good home I want first shot .

LOL :D I know Right?? Funny you say that I was just looking at a pick of this truck at MATS 2 years ago during the light show and I counted and I counted another 40+ lights I can add... SOOOOOOooooo I may not be done..:eek:

Here is one of the picks you will get what I mean..

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...39063453_n.jpg
