Been off work with a back injury. So I finally glued the tyres on my konghead. It used to act as a slipper clutch as it has a 4000kv on 3s, now it just launches and lifts the front. It still gets squirrely when it diffs out and the two rear axles tyres touch each other 😀

Liking that Pacific green, doesnt look too far off GM's Bright Teal Metallic 👍 As above, I would extend a flatbed orif you are feeling spendy a low loader from rc4wd.

Hey Baddon, I could be interested in this piece if you are willing to ship to NZ? If not I understand

I always thought colour printing and enlarging the blurb and specs that sided the actual car in the vintage catalogues would be cool for the description next to the model...

Thanks bro. If you are absolutely keen on a chrome one I still have my new one I am not using, and if you have something useful similar to trade we could swap and it would only cost a each other a courier bag? Just an option for ya

It wont matter, apart from maybe adding 2mm to bump steer. It will clear everything, the servo cover is miles away from the top of the servo/saver and there isnt anything else to make contact with in the area. Tamiya just list that size as it is a guideline, doesnt contact anything, and suprisingly, is the exact size of their rebranded Futaba servos *conspiracy* coincidently...

Looks far better. I painted mine white (to match the guards and roof) and it looks good because they dont blend into the chassis. The body set parts come with a black and a chrome version.

You can buy another flat bed and put a fifth wheel on it to make it a B double. A lot of the US guys extend the flat bed trailers to make it more accurate to a 53', they normally spread the axles too. You dont have to stick with over the counter decals and trucks too, some of the more unique stuff is custom made. Convert a globeliner to a K100, there is Peterbilt light and grill sets for the king/grand. Fuel tanks and air cleaners... so many alloy wheels, even guys on shapeways making Mack and IH shells... How far do you want to go?

You wouldnt notice

Forgot about these, made by a talented man in the States who sadly passed away. Alcoa replicas:

Imagine trying to back up chasing that dinky little tail though

Any of my tractor trucks (being an ex truck driver) or the Leopard 2a6 would be fun! Alternatively, I want to make a 1/10 of my 1:1 one day soon

You can decal the 40, just use the sidings the on opposing sides so the ribs are inwards

Always admired the Juggernaut wheels and tyres... For sale too

I must admit, I pushed through to get it over with... But it was hugely satisfying when it was done! Truth be told, was a bit of a messy dump though...
