This is christmas present from my wife - my first 3-speed with ballbearings and Acoms Techniplus 4 FM.
The Radio has been modified for the left Stick did not set neutral so i build the things from the right stick into the left one.
First i wanted to build it later but then i couldn't resist. It was great fun to build and i love it - Buildung took m through the whole christmas days. Since i did only have left some Scorcher colors. i decided to paint it in this colors. I fitted it with really strong servos (DS1015 Thunder Tiger, 14,5kg, 0,108 sec@4,8V) and a waterproof ESC (Carson Truck). Since i used it's rims on my Lancia Delta project, i fitted the car with steel painted Focus rims.
Both diffs are locked and i fitted the car with RockStompers, so there should be way everywhere :) - The first outdoor run must wait a little, since my real car does have a real breakdown :( - I hope there'll be some snow then...
As an Ex-Surfer and now Inet Surfer, i must have added some Surfer decals - This car is real F2 - Fun & Function
update 09/2008:
First pics shows as it looks now - repainted and weathered to an old 'filthy' Surfer-Hilux :)
comments welcome as usual ;)

What a nice looking truck! I like the surf stickers. I am thinking about doing the same with a snowboard/BMX kind of version.

mine was F2 axxis 272 - great board, but know i'm too lazy to go surfing....
yeah no the Neusiedler See there a little waves (up to 1m)- but it's dangerous there, cause the See isn't deep at all - deepest place about 220cm 
Seth:

Nice to find out other TC Members used to windsurf. So 'eighties', no?
Looking forward to installing some surfboards on my F350. 'F2'... so nice to hear that name again...
