Love the color, very nice. You stretched the frame, excellent. As far as the trailer, I think the tank trailer would look sweet.

Really like the wheelbase. Stretched out but still not obnoxiously long. Keep the pics coming...

Check out the stacks from Snochaser in the vendors section. He should have something you like!! Stretched frame looks about right for a King Hauler. Just wish that Tamiya would offer it that way to begin with. Tanker would look good behind your tractor.

cabs got any idea where to get a stepdeck thats not gonna cost me and arm and a leg

tc1cat
yeah i agree tamiya shold have done this length for the king hauler to begin with the stock wheelbase is waaaayy too short atleast in my opinion

i ordered a set of bull pipes form pmd last night for it we will see how they look on her when they get here
thanks for looking guys
