Thanks guys! I appriceate the feedback

Eventually i want to run some type of sound system, but that's probably way on down the road. Also depends on finding something that sounds right or pretty close. Also I know next to nothing about sound modules. This needs a siren, but V8 gas engine and horn would be pretty nice to have too. Suggestions would help.

My aim is just 'better that the original toy'. Right now the plan is going for:
Drive
Steer
Roof lights
Head/Tail/Marker lights
- Horn
- SIREN

High beam headlights are OUT of the question now. I drilled the grill for it, snapped it back together, and that's too close to the body mount for me to feel comfortable modding the body. I don't want to risk the body cracking just for a gimmic. Inboard lens glued back in.

1-Adam-12, in it's natural habitat... A truck and construction meet!




My bus was 'suspicious'...







Mustang was kind enough to take a couple parts home to mill some adapters to mate a toygrade gearbox up to my Baby moon Steelies, so i should hopefully be able to mark the unit In Service soon.

Now i need to order a servo, esc. Then figure out a light control and siren.
