So I've removed the cheap stickers and mounted the Red truck body and There are plenty of details to paint which will just add to the look B) I ordered the 2nd servo kit for the twin steer setup and some new axle bash guards ;)

Sorted out the steering linkages tonight :) Because the PO had made the tube frame and added aftermarket alloy linkage ends, some of the original ends seem to have been lost :( after reassembling the chassis links I only had to others left (and would need 8 or a least 4 for the main tie rod):pinch: luckily I managed to find 2 more of the same length for the main tie rod and have custom made the 2 servo links B) Also I've won a 4ch Transmitter & receiver so I can independently control both steering servos :cheer: Just waiting for them and the other parts to arrive and we'll be ready to roll :y: Plus I put the f/r bumpers back together but no point fitting till the new axle covers arrive :blink: ;)

Well then, a little bit of paintwork while I wait for parts to arrive ;) I decided to give it an urban camo look just for fun, heavy on the back and side trims but light on the front. The front has some nice details I will do, like the intercooler and lights plus the grill :) I will also do the handles on the doors and tailgate :y:

I'm not sure if I should stop there or add a number to the doors :huh: what do you all think?

:woohoo: Terrible your multi sterring system :y: :y: :y: very impressive.
And the urban camo is very fun. You're right with the numbers because with the camo the upper part looks empty.
Can you do a zoom of the camo please? :P ( just to copy it on a car maybe the f350 body I stocked)

Urban camo? Only if it's parked next to something blue & black that's been dive bombed repeatedly by a flock of pidgeons. :sick:

No sir, I didn't like it.
