Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
Ok well I got the cabs back from my buddy and as always he nailed it for me another killer job.. So I got them back to the shop and wet sanded and buffed them out and mounted all the shiny stuff and this is what I got...
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...100024_667.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...095945_617.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...100049_981.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...100049_981.jpg So Friday I went to the decal shop that did the decals on the real truck and Travis took some measurements off the Rc Truck and scaled the full sized ones down to 1/14 so they are perfect 1/14 scale decals of the full size ones.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...140909_979.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...140931_922.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...140938_001.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...141000_114.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...141035_191.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...141041_605.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...77764844_n.jpg Now back to the shop and brea it down and get the frame painted...:update: |
Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
These turned out great Paul, very nice. It's so much more impressive to see a "scale" model of an actual 1:1. It's to bad they have to be disassembled to paint the chassis.
|
Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
Those are 2 outstanding trucks :bounce::bounce: I don't think anyone would turn down a chance to own either 1 of them. Another GREAT build :eek::eek:
|
Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
Amazing job Paul. Great detail.
|
Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
Nice work Paul. With the two of them side by side, and the camera being a bit further back, my first thought was they looked exactly like two DCP models lined up. The proper scale look is there, and the proportions are great.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
awesome builds,and perfect attention to detail.

Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
Well got a bunch more done on Hot Iron #1 today pretty much all done but the headlights, Light bars, Mud flaps, and fender rock guards and MFU.. So here we go got the Cattle Guard all together and mounted the Russ "True Scale Rc" made for the 2 trucks it will be lighted.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/001.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/002.jpg Also got the mirrors mounted and the SS fill ins made and mounted.. I will be making correct mirror brackets out of bass a little later of both trucks.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/003.jpg Random picks here you can see the Pete oval insert for the grill shell.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/014.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/009.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/008.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/010.jpg Then here is a few picks of a new part Russ "True Scale RC" made up for me is the shock box cover and a remote air line box both parts are separate from each other and hollow so you can mount lights in them or your wires. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/013.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/012.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/007.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy012/004.jpg |

Ok so been working on the Hot Iron truck doing wiring for all the lights and there are a lot.. Here is what I have worth taking a picture of..I made the under cab light panels and used led bezels from True Scale RC and the rest I had from Lynn to fill them and did the chrome panel behind the fender too all parts are made out of alum and polished out.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy014/005.jpg Here is a pick of the sleeper panel it hanges on the sleeper floor and I will either use 1.5mm screws to screw it to the floor threw the tab or JB Weld it the cab panel is easy it is flat and is pinched between the body and the bracket the screws go threw to hold the cab on.. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy014/010.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...boy014/012.jpg More to come once the MFU is close to being done installed and I make the light panels for the Air Cleaners.. |
Re: Bull It Angus 379 Build "HOT IRON"
