New Guy From Vermont
New to the forum, and new to the hobby. After seeing some videos from this past winter's Cabin Fever, I started following one of the scale trucking groups on Facebook. Recently I've been looking into building a truck myself, and have sort of fallen in love with the Tamiya King Hauler.
Unfortunately, I can't afford the full kit at the moment, so I've decided to Johnny Cash it and buy one piece at a time. This'll take longer to build, but fits with my cash flow. Looking forward to learning more! -Elroy |

Re: New Guy From Vermont
Welcome, belatedly, to the forum! Yes, initial cost of things can be an issue, but look for used stuff. Might even find a truck that is partially built or someone dropping out of the hobby, so just check the sale heading on here, other truck forums, Ebay, etc. Never know when a great buy might show up.

Re: New Guy From Vermont
Thanks for the welcome. I've been very slowly collecting parts. My next purchase will be rails, so it should start looking like a frame soon, as opposed to a box of random stuff.

Re: New Guy From Vermont
Negative driver, it's not a King Hauler.
This here is a genuine 'Psychobilly Kingscania Volvoknight Aerocadia Hauler' Good luck, it'll be cool watching it come together

Re: New Guy From Vermont
Just be sure it has one headlight on one side and two on the other side!
Or, you could do a conversion instead? I have a lot of fun bashing a Nylint or Tonka into a working RC. Jim |
