Looks great Mario and the best part for Sue is you had time to practice on your truck (which is fantastic as well) to make hers even better.

Thanks John...It's a lot easier to wax an rc truck than it is my real truck. I love when things shine...got some more polishing to do today...

I love cab clearance lights and lights in front of the breathers, which I see you have also!

Black Passion build update:

Been making good steady progress lately and things are coming along great. Everytime i think im ready to start installing electronics, i find something else i want to do on the body or chassis.
i should be installing and testing the mfu and motor operation in the next day or so. Also , still gotta go to the graphics dude in town and get the logos made!

anyway, here she is.............








Back when i installed my stacks on King of Bling I had removed about 1 1\2" of the pipes but seeing as I'm a mechanic and just cant throw anything away I kept the little peices and I'm really glad I did!
You may be able to see that i used those on the end of the elbows and they go right to the frame rails. It filled the gap between the steps and fuel tank perfectly





Also installed some lights on rear of sleeper which will be connected to the reverse lights






Also painted the back mounting of the steps from PMD and some cool pete logos in black and chrome instead of the typical red.






Thanks for lookin, all comments welcome

Mario

Thanks Nathan , Kaff. Glad you like.

I couldnt help myself. I wanted to take a few pics of the fleet so I pulled Super Bling out of winter hibernation mode and took a few pics.
the fleet has come along way from this :






and now this .









oh, i removed the pete logos on Super Bling and the glue is drying on the new KW badges right now.

Cant wait for springtime already!!!


Thanks for looking.

Mario

Sorry Fred, almost forgot to reply to your question
the air cleaner lights are from PMD. Each has 10 led and look nice lit up. Susan loves them, personally i have one issue with them. They are a little too thick. The air cleaner sticks out quite a bit.
Nothing major, just me being fussy

The breather lights from Ric are not up on the site yet but available, I just ordered a few sets and they are Amber in front and Red in the back.

Thanks for the compliments Dwayne. Great way to describe the trucks. June just can't come fast enough

The lights are 5 amber on front side and 5 amber on the back side. Your right, these are not listed on Ric's site. He had them at the Indy show. That's when Susan bought them.

See, another good reason why you want to attend the Indy show next August the weekend of the 24th so you can see the latest and greatest goodies.

I can't remember how much they were... All the stuff I've purchased in the last year, it's all a blurr

Mario

I believe he may offer both as my first set was Amber both sides and the last few were split, Amber in front and Red in the rear.
