Re: Green Globe First Build
I have a set of stock KH frame rails I would be happy to donate to your fine build. PM me with some details so I can get them to you.
1985's Poseidon is the perfect stretch, didn't know it was on KH rails but it looks great. Chris |

The IH grill on your truck made me think of my first truck, it was a COE IH. It was a little older (1985 ish) and raggedy when I got it. I had to keep a bungie cord handy and use it to keep the shifter from popping out of gear in PA on I-80. I would hook one end on the edge of the bunk and the other end around the shifter. That highway was really rough back then. Back to the topic at hand, it's great to see cabovers on the forum.

Re: Green Globe First Build
The final group of photos through to the finished (for now) truck.
Added the fifth wheel and bumpers. Stacks, lights, mirrors, and handrails. Interior and grill. These are what I have at this time. I did a basic build and will make modifications later. I do want to thank everyone for their comments and ideas. I certainly take it all in and keep everything in mind as I make future changes. Thanks for looking!!

As far as a trailer I am not real sure yet. I will be paying extra close attention at Indy this year to see what way I wanna go. I am thinking something that can be loaded and dumped.

Re: Green Globe First Build
Thank you 126happy. I have been running it around the house and on the sidewalks (my dog is terrified of it). I have to do something about the bobtail situation though!

Re: Green Globe First Build
Came out great. Drive it around and enjoy it while you collect upgrade parts for a "winter upgrade project". I agree with Bigford, tankers look great behind cabovers.

Re: Green Globe First Build
I agree Bigford. That is a good idea and something to give some thought to.

Thanks Chris I have already started looking at various parts for the upgrade. So many things to do and choices available. As far as a trailer... tanker has possibilities.

Re: Green Globe First Build
Thanks Gator. I was really happy with how the green turned out. Still thinking of stripe or paint scheme options to add to it.

Re: Green Globe First Build
Having some years on the trails, your build brings back memories of the classics down on Hwy 27/441. Again, outstanding!

Re: Green Globe First Build
I agree Gator. Time to bring back some of the nostalgia in our RC world.
