Well, for the most part I loike everything orange. But I figured I would try a Green truck, (what do you think Russ). Stretched frame, here is where I'm at.

That is sharp! I'm no crazy about the color, but it still looks nice, and those steps....whoa! Sweetness. Looks like a really nice combination of parts.

Thanks Nathen, the pic quality does not help the color. It looks much nicer in the proper light, little bit of metallic gold in it.

Of course use it lol, your truck mate !

Thanks Sharkey

Updat on the HULK HAULER, LOL. I finally had some time to get the cab painted this week. I added some aluminum rims, Russ's tanks, RC4WD KW grille, Ben's stacks, Rod's visor, PMD cow catcher and a set of horns. Truck is just about finished, I just need two more lenses for the cab and maybe some pinstripe, not sure yet.

Added a polished aluminum deck plate and a PMD headache rack, the rack is mounted to the cab back so it comes off for access to the battery compartment.

Thanks Aaron, the paint is smooth and shinny, can't decide if I want to pinstripe it or not.

Really a nice truck. I'm new to this hobby. Can I ask you where you purchased the frame and cross members? Just starting to get parts together for a build. Nothing built yet just on paper.

Cross members are from stock kits and rails are from PMD I believe on this one.

Your rig turned out bery nice....choice of color compliments the chrome.

Thanks RC farmer, the olor really pops in the sun, it's got a fair amount of old in it. I painted my wrecker the same color with black.

For the pin striping I would go with either a gold leaf or black. Love the green color it really POPS!
