Finally got a King

[pumptech]

Well ,finally got me a king hauler,got it on the easy pay plan !
Been needing something to haul my construction models around.
My brother was in the hobby briefly a couple of years ago,then lost interest in it ,he gave me a dump trailer he built,need to make a screwdrive mechanism for it ,couple of mods,and a touch of paint.All of the parts except for the tires were picked from Lowes when it was built.
Have plans for a lowboy sometime this year.Going to shoot for a daycab,hope I can pull it off Will get a build thread up soon ,have a few electrical parts and servo's on order.Waiting for the parts to come in ,then get started on it.

Hey thanks Bricknick ,it will be a fun project,love to tinker and build.
What kind of trailer are you looking for?
I've been into the hobby for several years, started out with a couple of traxxas models,then got a interest in the construction side,yea,its addictive,lol.
Would like to shoot for something like this,pic to follow,really like the oilfield trucks.


Anyone like the ole Brigadiers,one of my favorite trucks .Its out of my league to build from scratch,lol ,pic to follow.

Actually I'm kinda looking for a few trailers LOL, flatbed to stretch to scale 53' a tanker and the reefer to scale out to a 53' spread axel. And as for that cab being out of your league to scratch build, that's a minor task for some of the extremely talented builders on this board. Im sure you can get one of them to take on that cab build if you really wanted it.
