RCP57's first King...

[RCP57]

.....The trouble begins... About a month ago I was approached by one of our members to possibly "return a favour" and build a dump box for them. I had been pondering the idea of building a box for my Bruder Mack conversion and this was the kick I needed to get started. I started out by making up some press plates to bend the sides and used a brake to make the other pieces. It all came together quickly and I found myself in need of a truck so that I could get a feel for what it should look like on a King. I had been looking locally with no luck and was going to borrow a truck from Chaseracer(Jason) to get things started. I knew that a good friend of Jason's had a truck that was partially assembled but hadn't been touched in a long time so I asked(maybe begged) him to call and ask if it was for sale. Anyway to keep a long story from getting longer I was able to work out a deal and get myself a KH!

The truck has a 85 turn motor, high torque servos and aftermarket tires but that's about it. I still need a few things to get it up and running but all in good time.

Once I had the truck I figured I should build myself a dump box as well...Then I thought why not make three, or four or...

After all that BS here is my basically stock, non running KH and some dumps...


Not much size difference hey?













Thanks for looking!
