newbie 1st build custom grand hauler

[Scott M]

Absolutely, if you would have told me three months ago I'd be spending money on a rc semi. I would have laughed hestarically. As I get further into the hobby my tastes are evolving, with the new parts I find available for these rigs. Your right though I do believe I almost have enough parts to build a third rig. Thanks!!

Sorry for the time between updates on the build. I had come across a issue while building and realized the front tires weren't tucking into the body like I wanted. So I got in touch with Mr.Russ at true scale and asked him to make a narrowed front I-beam, and while we were at it he made me some custom frame rails. here's the beginning of the new frame build.

here's where I'm currently at.. Still have a lot of parts to install though, and still have to figure out how to make everything work.
