I got some goodies in the mail today! The package contained enough parts to get this up and moving so I took the afternoon off from box building and got to installing the ESC, battery and adjusting everything. I still need to mount some things inside the cab but at least it drives!

The truck looks great Reg! You are adjusting well going from scratch builder to assembling pre fabs
I like your choice of colour but when I saw it , the first thing that came to mind is.... Where's the green and white?
Have you considered duplicating the 850 paint scheme and logo onto your KH ?
I think that would look sharp

Thanks Mario. I am adjusting but it is definitely not the same feeling of accomplishment. They are a cool little truck though for sure and it's a great platform to make custom pieces for.

I had thought about painting this the same color combo as the big 850 but didn't want to put the effort in that the multi colored paint job requires. When I get around to building a cab from aluminum it will get a more "vintage logger" paint scheme...Until then Ford, chrome yellow it is!...I can't believe I used a Ford color...lol
