Default Re: Zil 130 Thing

Since space in this thing is rather limited and I plan on running a Beier sound unit, I ran out of space for the battery. I was hoping to avoid it, but I had to resort to building a "toolbox" to house the battery, a 3s 2700mah. It's made of styrene with a diamond plate veneer. I'll be adding magnets to secure the lid and painting it black after I do some final touches to it.




No brake lights or housings were included with the kit so old Axial parts to the rescue!


I just need to figure out how to cleanly route the wiring.


Got the shifter installed and figured I'd give the driver some comfort and convenience a 20th century truck driver has come to expect!
