So many words can be use to describe what brick said, like drop the ______,there's nothing wrong with having a man bag its the in thing to throw ypu crap
Isn't the box the pink insulation that a few guys use to make there box's ????
Welcome KW_W900L to our crazy fun house

I think that there are a few things that guys can get away with thats purple or pink. Thats Semi's, hot rods, and harleys. So i say go for the Purple!

[Dairyland Trucker]

Purple truck for some reason always look good, but this one look great GO Purple!!!!

[KW_W900L]

well just to get back on the radar, i built my truck and got her running good except for the fact that I broke the little thing that looks like a trailer hitch on my shift servo, but other than that shes good as far as running goes. My trailer is all built which its the box trailer that Tamiya sells(my cat likes riding around on it). I would post pics but theres no camera around that is available but I will document the customizing and fabricating as its my first real hack job. Just to give you a idea of what Im hoping to go for is a little somthing like

Then make it the nice deep candy purple with the lighter Seminole

As far as parts go im gonna stretch the frame first, I have a 6" stretch kit from PMD(wonder if i should get the frame rails instead) among a set of "Bull pipes" and a Texas bumper with the L.E.Ds, I have 2 sets of the under bunk lights which I might tie in, as I also have a extra set of cab lights from them.

Sounds like you are off to a great planned start...not to mention purple is my favorite colour also....and that i am a huge fan of kw trucks

[KW_W900L]

Well here is my first picture of my little pride and joy, We have a long journey ahead of us. Sorry for the bad quality picture because of those i pods, but I fabbed up some temporary stack mounts from the steps off the old fuel tanks and put my side lights on and the PMD fuel tanks and bumper. I'm still trying to score some polystyrene so i can start shaping this truck and I'm currently waiting to cut the frame for a temporary 6" stretch before I can get my frame rails. This is all for now, might post some more pics sooner or later. Gotta say this little truck has made the better part of last year and the beginning of this year alot more bearable and I,m pretty happy I,m able to be a part of this awesome community.

Now as for the paint..

I,m Still gonna paint it excaly like this one(as much as everyone just loves purple haha) but as a A-Model like my dream truck posted above, Spencer's :P

[hammer]

I like that paint job who cares if it is purple and pink matter of fact my next truck is going to be pink and purple I am also going to get a matching speedo and a pink boa. John gave me his guy he uses. LOL.

Seriously nice looking build can't wait to see the finished product.

That's sharp! See, purple is a good color for truck.

[Mama Sue]

Very Sharp. The colour is perfect for it.

This truck is so sweet, it's giving me a toothache. You will definitely turn heads with this one. Can't wait to see some color on her.

Sorry for the terrible quality pictures and links but I'm having trouble uploading them into here, but I'm back up and going again with my truck after a long absence due to scarce funds. As you can see I'm in the process of a coffin bunk(currently modding the base plate that it mounts to). After hacking it all apart and figuring it out its actually pretty fun being a complete beginner. More to come with better quality pictures!

[KW_W900L]

Got some more progress done, 6" stretch done and tapered the tail. after I'm finished playing with the bunk I'm gonna move everything back for a hood stretch pretty soon!







Thanks for looking!

[KW_W900L]

progress!
