Hello all my fellow RC Addicts of the world i though i would share my latest project with you all and how far i have gotten with it. What i am working on is a scale version of the BSF Recovery Teams red Chevy tow truck they use to clear the trail trucks with, they have lots of videos on youtube of them using the truck and i wanted a scale truck for the last year so this will be it. It is an scx10 frame and axles with a duel motor mount on the transmission and Roberson Racing gears in side of it, I have got the axles siting as far apart as i wanted them using the old wraith lower links and the four link mounts on the axles and just need to order the right length drive shafts for it. the body is going to be a Clod Buster Chevy body and the bed is going to be all custom made styrene with metal mounts under it for the boom and tow point. the fun part is making the duel wheels on the back not stick out to far but I'll work on that when the tires come in the mail.
Well enough of me blabbing how about some pics

PS. The cardboard is just a mock up of the bed just so i know how much styrene i need to buy.
