Well, it looks like you got all the parts together, except for a very important piece... Actually, make that two very important pieces connected by about 4 or 5 other important pieces. lol Those parts have a lot of potential, I will be watching this one!

Nice start, girl. Now take your time, think about what configuration you want, and have FUN

I just love a new kit to start a build

Off to a great start shy girl, nothing like breaking out a new kit and seeing it come together right in front of you. I can't wait to see more progress.

OK, I need to know where the orange servos come from. They would look real good in all my Orange trucks as well.

Cool Re: First Truck Build

That's lookin' very nice, Shygirl. When the rails come in, you can get started and make some real progress

I bet you're keeping Mario at a distance by keeping a dog chained to the base of the work table or we just know he'd be playing with all the parts

Lol. Sorry dude. I'm Mario and my wife is mama sue. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think shy girl is Russ's wife. .
Ohhh, and no dog required ... Lol . She says how she wants it to look and I get to make it happen!. She watches and helps prep parts too

Very nice start. Can't wait to see this one come together..... Make sure Russ isn't playing with all the parts eh!
Hope your having fun guys!

Mario

Exclamation Re: First Truck Build

My mistake What WAS I Thinking

Well, Russ is probably laughing himself silly just knowing I get easily confused with all our members here

No dog required, huh I bet he'll be helping before long It's just natural
