Default Mack Ultraliner

Started out with a Globeliner chassis. The stock Tamiya transmission. Painted the hubs to match the chassis. RC4WD Roady super wide tires for the front.

Beautiful looking chassis. I like the tires, and especially the painted the rear hubs. Sharp as a tack!

I think I have the same wheels. I bought them on ebay as well. Great value and quality but I have them put away until I have enough parts to start moddin my Harley Knight Hauler.
I would have to dig them out and compare, but i'm pretty sure they are the same.

Thanks Diesel.It's custom made. Well I removed the stock transmission and replaced it with a RC4WD R-2 transmission and 65T motor.Made a bracket out of 1/8 flatsock.And mounted airtanks on both sides of the frame. Added some rear fenders painted them metalic silver. Replaced the deck plate with something shinny. The fuel tanks with aluminum brackets.Will probaly replace the plastic tanks with aluminum ones. Installed the air cleaners.

This truck is starting to look really hardcore, as in heavy haul. It's look like a really tough machine, yet still show quality. That's a good job!
