Yellow Zonker Update "NOT FINISHED"
I got this killer truck off my good friend Rick 2 weeks ago and I just doing some minor changes to it but leaving the color the same as the paint on it is perfect and has a very cool effect in certain light. So it came with no tranny so I set it up with a R2 tranny and a 55 turn and a 20 tooth pinon I also switched to a set of Brian's steps and Steve's perfect air cleaners they are the most perfect scale air cleaner out there and a set of Jon's picket stacks on it and I built a custom drive shaft for it. Radio gear I went with Castle sidewinder ESC and a 2.4 with a 645 servo. Here is what i have for now I am waiting on the stacks they will be here this week and I have to finish the lights.
That is it for now more to come.

Thanks Raiders Rick did a outstanding job on this truck for sure.. He hammered out the fenders out of Alum sheet so they are alum.

Re: Yellow Zonker Update..
Yeah, nice looking little rig. All that hay in the background is no doubt going to end up on the trailers, no?

Re: Yellow Zonker Update..
Well got sometime today between 2 builds i am working on for a very good friend of mine. I got my pipes in from Stylen and go a set cut down and mounted on the Zonker. Also polished the shiny stuff up and I drilled and mounted the cab lights as I am working on the lights next.

Re: Yellow Zonker Update..
Thanks Much Rick I am glad you like it.. The dock lights are bedazzle jewels glued over a 7/32 drilled hole as they are 1/4 in the OD I will mount the flat faced LEDs to the back of the jewels with some CA..
