That's actually pretty cool. I like the after market transmission cross member.
Did you make the frame out of plastic?

cstm68 · 01-10-2011, 12:39 AM

Ive tried every hobby shop here and cant find these trucks... Ive seen every kind of car there even the flat out ugly ones

but never one of our trucks. If i went there i wonder if the have a mag that they can order from or something like that.
