As regards this truck, I have to agree with the above statement. Absolutely fantastic....!MelvinsArmy wrote:Unbelievable. There's a lot of cars on this forum that I really like. This truck on the other hand, well let's just say this is the first time I've ever been jealous of someone.

You know, I'm not really a truck guy but this is real art! Great restoration of a real classic. My hat's off to you!

Looks fantastic, nvxwax! I love the wheels, I've always been partial to that design--that was the first style of mag wheels I bought & installed on my 1970 Charger back in the 80's.

I love that design too. I'd flip left to right though so the spokes go forward, like a saw blade, make the truck look even more aggressive.Coelacanth wrote:Looks fantastic, nvxwax!

I know I've expressed how much I like this truck, but man that thing is sweet. I'll never get tired of looking at it. Vintage r/c of this caliber this doesn't come up very often. This is the real deal right here.
