Merritt

Hey thanks much Mert.. Ok guys just so all of you know it is Merritt that got me this build from this company and he helped me build it he ordered parts and built the trans and axles and the front steering he was a very big help taking care of things so i could build the frame and body..

Nice build, the detail work was up town.... Was it hard to let go of it after all the hours you put into it ? Maybe next time go to a automotive store and you can buy windshield washer pump motors, then you could spray water from a cannon. just a thought

Greg Thanks for the comments. No it was not hard to let go of it I was ready to see it gone. I had all the stuff to do the water but i decided that guys that have no Idea about RC stuff probly would not be a good idea to have a water system with it.

I remember when you first started this build, one **** of A job!!

[Fireman700]

Paul I've said it before but it is just amazing...That guy has an awesome piece of apparatus in what you built - might keep the top sales guy for taking that with him to sell the 1:1

How bout' building a tiller (hook-n-ladder) now?

Thanks much for your comments on my build. This means a lot to me coming from my favorite builder. It was finding your builds on the net and then meeting with you on the Garden that really go me inspired to start building and the rest is pretty much history..

Thank You very much Chris!

Thanks Much Cory.. More than likely it was put on a shelf and never driven again..

Just browsing this build and I cannot believe my eyes. You are a true craftsman you are so detailed and meticulous in everyway. Looks amazing.

Ok 2 Globe Cabs

I would like to have seen it finished in the Montgomery County Livery, but then again I just retired from there so I might be a little bias! Great work!
