Stahl Dozer rebuild to the correct color "Orange"

[Kaf343]

I bought this dozer a few weeks ago and immediately wanted to switch the radio to my Spektrum, in doing so I lost the drive ESC mixing. So I pulled a Saber tooth out of my Blizzard and stick it in. Ran great for about 3 min and then the blue smoke snuck out of the right drove motor.

I looked for a drive motor replacement and got a few good ideas from a few members here, I ordered some new gear motors and thought this is a good time to get the CORRECT color on it. "Orange"

So I ripped it apart and sent the parts off to Brian for some Exclusive touch paint.

Here's what I started with.

Here is what I got back from Brian yesterday.

I did a little assembly last night. More to come.

To funny Joe, I like that, "Oranganoplois disorder" or OD! Finally I have an diagnosis!

Here is a pic of my very first toy truck, it's a buddy L dump truck and yes it is orange. Lol, so my addiction started very young. I think I was about 4 when my mom bought it for me. I just recently converted it to RC.

Nice truck, I like the old school stuff. Noticed the eyeglasses laying there, you are just like me, can't see a darn thing anymore...

Mad a little progress on this thing, I'm happy with the look of it. Will be adding more detail as I complete it.
