Okay, so yet another project in the works... I have pieced this one together with parts. Still need a couple (Listed)...

I picked up the truck about a year ago and haven't done anything with it till now. But decided while I am waiting for parts and what not for other builds, would start this one... might as well join the "In progress" club right? Haha...

Still Need to get:

New White front bumper
New Body
New white 87 tooth spur gear (Have old one for now)
New ball cups (LOL & Have old ones for now will do)
New front arms (Just noticed they have had a screw put all the way through)

Here is a couple of teaser pictures:

Got the bumper nip-

bright light bright light !!!!!!!! lmao.Never put white parts on wHITE surface with ALOT of bright lite can hardly see it.DON

Ya, I know... Didn't feel like dragging out the other background.

I can see it better now lol Thats a great start.DON

Couple more pics.... Update:



Shocks:

I think this is going to get some titanium turnbuckles... I keep thinking as I'm building it, "How would you build this thing if you were just opening up a kit?" Well, the answer to that, I would throw the stock turnbuckles in the trash and put titanium on it, along with a graphite transmission brace and anything else that is cool.... So there will be some changes coming,

Progress update:

New front bumper, New rear Arms... And some wheels and tires I had laying around, :

Very clean. What are your plans for paint?

I haven't decided yet. I may do an old paint scheme I had on mine BITD.

That is one clean looking build. I'm looking for the same rear tires you have there. Where did you find them? Any leads your willing to share?

Thanks,

Pretty sure I just seen a few pair on eBay.

Those came on the parts truck that I made this truck out of.

Sean, Paint it like Cliff Letts moo truck.

Do you remember my dalmation themed yellow chassis truck? It was like the moo, except with dalmation spots.. Thinking about doing something like that again... Except going to put orange in it somehow... If I could find a Yellow chassis, I could re-create my truck all together,
