Thank you guys for all the love on the new truck. It is still apart and I am waiting on the chromer,painter,and Ups to deliver more items that are needed. I also changed a few itens since the last pictures. I should wrap this build up or put a dent in it this week with lots of pictures. Stay tuned.

Ed

I like the suspension. It will be interesting to see how well it performs. Nice job so far.

Ed,
What happened to the build the suspense is killing me. I need to know if I should throw in the towel and sell all my trucks and start a new hobby like panning for gold in Alaska.....

Hey everyone, its me again. No real changes yet as I am waiting on some parts to get back from the chromer .Here is a update. I have 4 polished dump trucks and trailers and that's a lot of work to get them polished, so I painted this box


I also added clear 3mm lenses down the side with blue leds.I reworked my tailgate and added a micro servo to open and close the tailgate. That black prop holds my bed up while I do wiring. The pump there is a UMS pump with frame mounted brackets. As soon as my wheels and grill come back I will mount the body and start her up.

Ed,
Another show stopper I think it is safe to say when we see you post a build it is game on the quaility of work you put into all your builds is hands down remarkable... I am not sure but I think that truck would look good painted blue..Great job my friend.

Wow Ed looks fantastic! Looks like an east side coal bucket. What gauge motor wire do you run? That stuff looks huge! Looking forward to more updates and a video

Hammer,
Thanks again.We talked on the phone about this,I just build trucks because i love the hobby. I think it is great when we all come together and shoot the crap,and runtrillusiondy or cabin fever,midwest show,Rods place or whatever. its all good.
Truck maker, thanks for the comments.I hope to run with you at Pfb place this spring .The wire guage is the standard guage that comes on a pre wired battery.the camera caused a illusion that is like 14 guage or something.

Ed
