I closed up the back of the cab using Plastruct 1:16 scale diamond plate, but it didn't look right, so I sanded it down and tried some O scale (1:48), which seems to look a lot closer to scale.


Homemade 4.25:1 GRU. The top speed is pretty good with the Tamiya trans locked in 2nd. I have another set of gears coming that will give me 2.5:1 and a smaller profile, so I'll see how that works with the trans in 1st.






Not exactly where I planned to mount the pump, but I couldn't get it to fit up in the pump panel area.
