Ok well I got the cabs back from my buddy and as always he nailed it for me another killer job.. So I got them back to the shop and wet sanded and buffed them out and mounted all the shiny stuff and this is what I got...

So Friday I went to the decal shop that did the decals on the real truck and Travis took some measurements off the Rc Truck and scaled the full sized ones down to 1/14 so they are perfect 1/14 scale decals of the full size ones..

These turned out great Paul, very nice. It's so much more impressive to see a "scale" model of an actual 1:1. It's to bad they have to be disassembled to paint the chassis.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"

Nice work Paul. With the two of them side by side, and the camera being a bit further back, my first thought was they looked exactly like two DCP models lined up. The proper scale look is there, and the proportions are great.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"

Well got a bunch more done on Hot Iron #1 today pretty much all done but the headlights, Light bars, Mud flaps, and fender rock guards and MFU..

So here we go got the Cattle Guard all together and mounted the Russ "True Scale Rc" made for the 2 trucks it will be lighted..

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/001.jpg

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/002.jpg

Also got the mirrors mounted and the SS fill ins made and mounted.. I will be making correct mirror brackets out of bass a little later of both trucks..
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/003.jpg

Random picks here you can see the Pete oval insert for the grill shell..

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/008.jpg

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/010.jpg

Then here is a few picks of a new part Russ "True Scale RC" made up for me is the shock box cover and a remote air line box both parts are separate from each other and hollow so you can mount lights in them or your wires.
