permisson needed from my fellow builders
 

Ok fellas here's the deal. I'm pretty into instagram and post quite often. Every time I post pics of my king hauler converted to a kw w900 I get comments and questions from people asking me where? how? and where can they? Get a truck made of get into the hobby. I've had atleast 20 different guys especially guys who post pics of trucks and a lot of truck drivers ask me about the hobby. So my thought is to post more pics of the outstanding builds on this forum from other builders. Giving credit to the builder of course, in hopes of drawing more attention and newcomers to our beloved hobby. With just builds by tamiyacowboy Paul, 1985kenworth Dwayne, styling and profilin John, and the legend Freddygeardrive just to name a few I could post tons of outstanding custom build pics. Now my question to you gentlemen of this forum and the moderators of this forum is, would anyone have a problem with me posting a pic of they're finished build and give credit to they're forum name here on this forum. I haven't decided if I'd like to make a new instagram dedicated to our hobby since there isn't one of if I should just use my instagram, which happens to be the same as my handle here on rct&c.com please let me know. And also to the mods would they allow me to use a link to this forum in my instagram? What's your thoughts fellas?

by all means put a link to the forum .

I'm no moderator but as a builder I say post away! Once we load our pictures onto the net they end up all over anyway so we might as well have someone repost them that knows where they came from.

Our trucks are all over youtube so I don't see why instagram would be a issue

Re: permisson needed from my fellow builders
 

I've been getting permission from the people who made/took the video & photos, but then I post them. I think the more attention we can get the better.

I say go for it!!! :) :) :)

Ok fellas its official. Our hobby has an official instagram page known as scale trucking and construction. With a link to our forum directly in the instagrams bio. I understand if you fellas don't have one, buy I highly suggest creating one and following it for support. Not to mention I'm already following tons of big rig instagrams with it like Elizabeth truck center and dynaflex exhaust. I have started posted pics, only a few I had handy in my cell phone. I will be snagging a few more pics to throw up there tonoght and I am trying to give credit to the builder in every picture. There was a few I wasn't sure who built so I just credited " built by a talented builder over at rctruckandconstruction.com" please check.it out. And if you have any pictures you wish to be posted, displaying your build, your business name related to.our hobby I.e. the boneyard or ihbuilder parts. Or a picture displaying some of your parts for our hobby please feel free to send them to my email. You can send them to Girdwoodexpresstrucking@gmail.com
