Joe -
Yes still have and run it every few months. I'm glad you remember - the one thing I always think when I see it on the shelf is "Lil Giants Joe says there's no room to RC this". LOL. I always felt that was a challenge...but too many other things going and went on the shelf.

And yes, still plan to do something with all these nice parts. Dream would be a scratch build of Deere 710J loader/hoe in 1:14. I did a lot of prep work to that end, (field photos, measurements, scale drawings...I even have the gearhead motors for it) just need spark to bring it home I guess. Perhaps the King Hauler and finding you guys here will get me going.

P.S. I couldn't find you guys for a few days...finally had an idea...I typed "hauling dirt out of my basement" into Google.
