anybody have the tamiya tow truck yet?

[bigdogrod]

thinking about getting the new tow truck, and stretching the chassis for an american cab.

anybody have one yet, how's the operation? it looks like a lot is manual, i'm wondering if it could be made hydraulic.

thinking at least 16 channel radio with 3d sticks. truck movement on the left, boom and winch on the right.

i was thinking to just by the bed, boom, etc and start from scratch, but the parts are not even available yet. might be cheaper to by they whole thing and sell the cab and chassis separately. might recoup a couple hundred..
