Service truck

Parts are all gathered up to start I was going to do a flat bed but changed my mind.

Wow! Another stunning truck. I think she is gonna be a great ride once you finish up the doors for the body and throw some color on her. Is the crane going to be controlled fully by remote control? I can't wait to see some videos in action. Keep up the great work!

Re: Service truck
 

I like this idea better than the flatbed one. Nice one man.

Re: Service truck
 

Looks great Travis....Now all you have to do is get that thing on a jobsite and start yanking motors out of machines:D

Re: Service truck
 

Travis hello great job on the service truck I got a road call can you handle it? Ed:confused:

Re: Service truck
 

I may need your service truck when we take the dragline out and we have to attach the bucket since the chains on it are sooo heavy:D

Re: Service truck

Re: Service truck
 

I need to get some decals made for a couple of the trucks so I am waiting and I will have the guy at the sign shop do them all at once and it does'nt hurt to wait till later in the winter when he is slow and it will also give me some time to save some cash as I have spent the decal fund on parts.:D
