my custom ford 4dr dually 4x4
 
http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/...nworth/533.jpgsorry for the blurry picture but it was taken with a crappy phone and this is the only picture i have of this truck when i first got it.i bought it from a local gent who built it in his spare time and didn't want it anymore.it is a custom one of body using 2 tamiya blackfoot bodies and it is biult on a crawler scale chassis.it is lit up with l.e.d.s like a real dually ,the only thing is the rear fender rear clearance light needs to be changed to red.since this picture there has been some serious upgrades.iy is not real fast but it has torque;)

http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/...ps65068f60.jpghere is an up to date photo of it.the front rims have been replaced with aluminum ones...waiting to get a set of rears that look almost the same as the front so i can replace the plastic ones.it has the rc4wd rear hub nuts.at first i was going to turn it into a tow truck but changed my mind..would rather a heavy wrecker.this truck has had the suspension beefed up alittle to accomodate a working plow on the front and it will pull my custom 2 car trailer with my 69 mustang and my 66 427 shelby cobra.the tires are from rc4wd and they have great traction in the snow which is evident in my video on my youtube channel oh the tool box if functional ..:D

That dually is sweet. I started on one a while back. Might have to finish it up some day.

That is a great platform for a wrecker! And if it doesn't work out, it still looks awesome!

Re: my custom ford 4dr dually 4x4
 
1:10 scale I assume?

1985 kenworth 08-05-2013 01:42 PM

Re: my custom ford 4dr dually 4x4
 
:Dyes it is 1/10 scale and thanks all for the kind words .i get a lot of attention when i take this truck out for a run.this is my dream pickup i would like to have in real life but can't afford it right now so the smaller scale does just fine...for now...

finally got my rc4wd plow in the mail today.i have been waiting eons for this to come back in stock.i checked the website one morning on the road and saw they were in stock ,by the time i got home that night they were out of stock again.so i got this from rpphobby,still waiting on a few parts to attach it to the truck and a some blue flashing snow removal l.e.d.s. and a high torque servo ,but i wanted to see how it would look if it was attached,once its attached i will post a video of it working seeing we are in for abit more snow over the next few weeks.http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/...ps15cef19e.jpg
