Thanks for all the comments guys, I appreciate it a lot! I wish ole Geardrive was here to see this, he'd never believe I'm actually going to paint something! My goal is to have this done much before the march meet Tim!

Next update will be paint!

Well guys.... I sorta hit a road block... Er... Drove off a bridge last night. It turns out rustoleum paint doesn't like duplicolor primer, so I was left with a gooey mess that would have taken insane effort to fix with sub-par results. Before I threw the cab against the wall and kicked a puppy (just kidding!) I saved the rear panel of the cab to use on the next body, which is already on it's way. I wasn't 100% happy with this body anyway, so mk2 should be even better
This piece was the most difficult part about the build ![]() On a brighter note.... I get my liscence next Friday, although I should have had it in September.... But I was too busy with work to finish up drivers Ed in time

That's unfortunate about the paint. You're not the only one who hasn't laid any paint down on a truck! Paint is overrated!
