The cab came from a company called Shapeways that is into 3d printing.

The guy is great and does wonders off a set of plans, I sent him.

And here is some more pics.

The chassis is a plain stretched chassis and a TLT-1 front cross member, with a dirty great hunk of aluminium up front as a bulbar, with the speed controller mounted underneath and behind a suitably made up "exhaust" and the receiver will be over the top.

The motor is an outrunner which surprisingly enough has enough torque to really push this vehicle along when finished. ( Geez I remember motors that were big heavy things, must be getting old, all this new tech )

A couple more of the body fitted to chassis, and yes I am going to build an R/C Palfinger for this truck (non-hydraulic)
