Wow, Rob, that is one fine truck! The paint is really nice. You must have been collecting parts for a while! Can't wait to see this one all done.

Looking sweet, I like that way you re-located the trans and steering servo. Truck looks awesome. Very nice.

Thanks all for the compliments.....I have been collecting parts for a minute. The paint scheme and stacks were done by Jon.
I still waiting for a few more parts, but this is the final assembly. My Timpte is almost done as well. Kinda building both, the wagon and the truck at the same time. I will start installing the electronics maybe tonight or tomorrow.
