Thanks for the compliments guys!!
Should look great when I get the Hellfire body in...What color do you guys recommend I should paint it?
I was think a Gun-Metal fade into white..

Did some tidying up today with the wires, fixed up the linkage. Decided I liked the battery box, so I cut a hole in it and put the tank in it.

And I also got myself a set of Integy Rear Hub Carriers:

The SMF Store, in the Mid-Tank Mod Parts section. 😀

 

[ShOrTaY]

Yeah, SMF Store has a great section with all of the parts you need, great guys to deal with as well! 😀

 

[Doesgo]

Nice job with the truck, Shortay! Looks awesome.

 

[ShOrTaY]

Thanks guys, I'm thinking of switching over to a Hellfire tank. This Mugen 125cc is a tad too small while the Hellfire is 150cc, bout the same as stock.

[SDMorris]

Mine is going to look better 😛!!!!


Just kidding, your truck looks sick man. I like the idea of hacking up the radio box, I'll do that with mine.

 

[svdude]

wouldnt have hacked radio box as puttin it in is extra weight

 

[Shaun]

[windjammr]
