Well I guess that I should start a truck build and this is my first RC truck. Was a Wall Mart last year and saw this Freight liner dump with pup. Thought that it might be a good truck to model
![]() Took it home and put it away and that was it, till I met up with Lou and Greg at a train show in Port Alberni. Seeing the great models that they had, I was hooked. Back in the sixties I worked for the Four Wheel Drive Corporation in Kitchener on the end of the highway truck line. We built one cab over with a longer frame that had a dump body installed buy Frink. That truck always stuck with me, so I decided why not build it from the Globe Liner. The first thing to do was install a longer frame and put on plenty of fuel for the long haul trips. ![]() I also ran the cab through the table saw to go from a 108" cab to a 96". ![]() Thanks for looking Rob Last edited by steamer; 02-10-2011 at 12:01 PM.

Nice Rob!
Pretty soon you're going to keep Greg and Lou busy loading your truck. |

Rob, I don't know how I missed this thread?
![]() Thanks for the videos of the Delta Loader working. ![]() That is a tiny battery you are using in it Albert. The progress of your Cab over and trailer will be fun to watch. Nice operating Greg, loading into that small train hopper really shows some good skills! The vid of Lou moving that huge log is cool, the log is almost as big as the machine. Looks like you guys had a blast. Having the equipment closer to eye level really makes it more enjoyable. Thanks so much for sharing!

Scott,
I use a 2cell 1300mah lipo pack in it (it is actually the flight pack for my Align 600E heli). Albert |
