Default Re: So what was everyone's first truck?

My first truck was a Tamiya MB 1838LS with flatbed trailer which I purchased used and converted over to a race-truck :



( I believe it was in 1999 , since that photo is from 2000 )

That truck was later converted to a 6x4 ,





and then followed by a few Globeliners and King Haulers .






Did get right away a few Wedico trailers ,





but my first Wedico truck didn’t get in to my truck-collection till last year .

My first R/C car was a Tamiya Blackfoot in 1985
Follow right away by a Clod Buster ,
And then I was hooked on the Tamiya’s
And during a business trip to Japan , I went in to a wild shopping-spree ,
since you could still find the already discontinued ( these days collector cars ) ,
and I came back home with my first Tamiya Bruiser , Wild Willy and others .
After discovering ebay , I went crazy again and within a few years I had my collecting of the first 100 Tamiya R/C cars and kits started .
To get in to a list of R/C cars I have these days would be way to long ,
But my collecting starts with kit # 1 , the 1/12 scale Tamiya Porsche ( R/C version )



Besides the R/C cars I did also build and collect all the Tamiya R/C and non R/C tanks in 1/16 scale

Non R/C model-building goes back till my school age , started late 60’s …

Early / mid 70’s I started building R/C model-ships with my dad .
Since the mid 80’s I am now hooked on the R/C cars and G-scale trains
and since the 90’s on the R/C trucks and R/C flying as well.
