Almost done , just have to paint the bottom covers . I used the electronics that came with it and took it for spin . Runs very well and picks up good with the slot machine motor .

Yes!! That truck looks great now.. Those white rims worked.. You said you painted it on the outside of the body correct? Did you apply any clear coat?

Since being on this site I have found that I have too many parts and R/C Models. Please help me get rid of them. ;-)

Top job! I dont think there is anything more satisfying than taking a beater and turning it into a gem. Mate your efforts have well and truly paid off with a stunning truck. Two thumbs up from me. :D
