king hauler
i used to think my truck is customized, but after seeing some of the beautiful, true customizing guy's are doing with chopping, stretching and duplicating actual trucks I came to realize my truck is " personalized " . I've enjoyed every moment up till now and hope to start learning how to build a true customized rig in the future.

Re: king hauler
The Finnish on this truck is flawless. I was quite impressed. What drew me to the metallic edition was the lack of major painting required...the draw back is the inability to cut or modify the body and not hide modifications......hmmmm sounds like a good challenge, chop, lower and stretch a king hauler metallic edition with flawless finish, no cuts showing.
How do I buy just the metallic body shell? |

Re: king hauler
Supermario, that sure is a lot of bling Look's sharp. I noticed in #4 pic, the front wheel look's different. I like it for a future project I have in mind. Where did you get them, and do you have rears to match? Now go save the princess lol.
Thanx, Big John

Re: king hauler
yes, rims in pic 4 are different.got them from RC damper. a five spoke style, rear rims look wicked, front ones are bland.... i actually added the wheel lugs you see. i used 2 mm nuts and glued to rim and it looks good. my biggest problem was it made the truck look more " RC " than "semi truck". i use the rear rims on my trailer, fronts sit in my spare parts box now i bought the transport truck type rims. Also changed the front tires, they looked too much like " drive tires" and replaced with a " steer tire " from Ric Murphy.

Re: king hauler
Supermario, honestly, I wasn't sure I liked the metallic editions too much. I thought it might just be too much chrome.....until I saw this!! I'm actually really impressed, it looks great. Just pure bling!

Re: king hauler
Thanks Swagger, glad you like it. When I first started the build , as i opened the box full of chrome that blinded me for a second.....lol.......I was considering painting stuff like the marker lights, horns ,air cleaners , visor in flat black as a contrast. But I put it all together and looking at it in person is way better than pictures can show. The entire body is like a mirror and it reflects everything in the room. From different angles the truck lights up differently, the top of sleeper and hood can be a dark mirror look while the sides are light and bright. The chrome actually highlights truck body lines and details more than hide with bright shiny bling.
Conclusion..... Enough bling will create blang ? Lol.... |

Updates to my king hauler, which now has a new name. KING OF BLING HAULER..lol
Well, as much as i hated having to take my truck half apart, after i had all the wiring looking and sitting perfectly. I was anxious to install my new 4:1 gear reduction and new fuel tanks from PMD. As a matter of fact about 75% of the items added to the truck is from PMD. I love Ric's site!! The new drive is awsome and was well worth the wait.
I was having so much fun I almost for got to take some pics before reassembly.... Todays project, get er back together and take for a test run |
