Greetings from Pittsburgh PA

[civicex5speed]

Hello all.
I wanted to take a moment and introduce myself. As the title says, I’m from Pittsburgh.
I have been into trucks my entire life, but never had a full on Tamiya truck. I still don’t actually. I have my first kid on the way so things like this take a hiatus.
Although I was advised to check out the forum by Tamiya Cowboy, so here I am.
I’ll be working on a day cab Globe liner (yes another globe again) seems like it’s one of the few American style Cab over semi’s out. That’s OK, just more for me to customize.
It will be a 4x4 with the chassis from a Tamiya CC-01. I hope to have a flat bed behind and real wood as the bed. Stay tuned for some pictures and such to follow.
Any suggestion on building a truck from scratch maybe? I have Tamiya Globe liner instructions, but still am unsure as what parts I need for a frame chassis.
Thanks
