Reg, nice job with the paint. So far so good! I think patience and prep (clean surfaces) is the key to a decent paint job. That and light coats. What brand of paint and primer are you using? The wheelbarrow puts the size of the chassis a little into perspective!

I'm using Plastikote paint. They are the only ones that offered school bus yellow in and aerosol that I could find. So far it's gone OK. Only one piece F'd up on me so far.

Yeah she's a big piece! The frame is quite heavy! The truck RTR less the trailer is 37lbs. I used 1 whole can of yellow paint just to do the frame. It looks bigger to me with some paint on it. Definitely will dwarf a King Hauler and be a pain to carry around.
