Default New King Hauler

Got this one from a good buddy of mine that I have been trading with for 15 years or so. He lives in the Southern part of my state but we never have met just phone and internet chat. So I loaded up my end of the trade deal and drove 270 miles round trip and this is what I got. Basically stock King with Rc4wd wheels and front tires. Has a Traxxas xl5 and 55 turn motor. It also came with a set of 28 inch rails that I will probably install once i get some rod for a driveshaft. Here are a couple pics....

Stick king rails are also perfect length for a custom looking globe liner with the stretched owner operator look. That's what I did with my stock king rails.

Well i finally got around to stretching this rig and I like it!!! Just need to make a driveshaft for it and will be back on the road. Here is a few pics!



You can see it doesnt fit on the shelf as nicely.....



Ive got a drop visor on the way and some new cab lights. Im looking into some new stacks and a new front bumper.

Thanks Dwayne! The pipes were the best 9 bucks I've spent at Lowes. A little aluminum polish and good to go!
