Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
I noticed that he forgot to mention that he caused a boo boo to each truck in the daylight. LOL. He certainly did make the most of an unfortunate situation. He played until 3am last night...

Funny part is that both trucks got the same ding in the same spot caused by the same thing You can hear the moment it happened to my truck as I scraped the rock cut with the left front corner of the bumper in the daytime video Going too fast and was watching the quad axle trailer room on the other side! Then, about an hour later with Sue's truck and the lowboy trailer ( which is even longer) didn't I tag the same rock with the same spot on her front bumper and the trailer caught a rock on the other side Ill post pics to show nothing major but, good thing I'm part owner in the company because if I was just a hired driver..... After yesterday, I'd be fired for sure! Needless to say, I made the rock cut turn a lot wider now No more scrapes! Mario |

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
I wanted to share a sneak peak at our future " spare parts " truck build. Susans daughter Cassidy likes the trucks but is terrified to run ours in fear of doing damage, so to make her feel more comfortable I figure a truck built from mostly spare parts should get her behind the wheel on this one.
Susans Uncle was here for a visit and true to his word he brought the made in china plastic 1/14th scale RC truck he found last summer! So here is the body Im thinking of using. Comes with the side skirts, I forgot to take pics of them. Check out the entirely chrome dash! which is in good shape unlike the rest All the parts I need to build are almost complete and will be doing this one as a winter project. this will be my first "casserole " build and looking forward to it!

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
So true Reg.......so true. Maybe I can do something bout that, we'll see.
Started another project I've been wanting to do for a long time now. The reefer needs lights!!! This trailer is one of my favorites. It is the first thing I purchased off of the forum. An awesome trailer I got from Spudd. No big projects going right now so perfect time to light er up! Heres where I'm at so far.... 12 lights each side, 3 up front and 4 out back. It's not a Smiley size light job but should look good. Let the wiring begin! thanks for looking Mario |

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
Hey mario great job on the lights for the trailer.... however....from the pics i see you have red l.e.d. lights over top of the reefer unit....ummmm....D.O.T states that those lights should be amber..
....it won't pass safety my friend...please surrender the plates to your nearest D.O.T. office or 24 hrs to correct it

Re: S&M Trucking open for bizz nizz !!!
Good eye Dwayne! I was wondering when and who was going to say something. Maybe the DOT won't let it pass but the S&M superhighway DOT says good to go!
A lesson for others......always test your LEDs for function and colour BEFORE installing and wiring! Mario |
