haha i know... think i am going to try to get either another MGT 3.0, or another LST so i/we have 2 of all the trucks i do have :P one day will find a deal like you did on a 1/5 scale ? really wanting to put money aside too for the Trophy truck build too.... need to stop procrastinating that.

Got a chance to run the truck last night, these tires grip so well, was so nice to scratch that itch of running, been to busy with work and moving havent been able to run at all. need to adjust the 2 speed a bit (shifting later than id like). so happy i ended up buying this truck lol, was so on...

Its funny because i have, but before it was my new home lol, its on the way i used to take when i used to go run my crawler and used to stop by to crawl on the landscaping rocks out front of the complex. think i found a pull spring that will work with this truck too which i am excited about...

Yup, ended up only being 2 blocks away, but much more room. It's an apartment though so can't run the nitro rcs out front anymore. Was able to snap a picture lol looks so much better with the big Joe's

been awhile since i updated this thread, ended up moving so finally got settled in (More area to work on RCs!) then after about a week of waiting and mail guy finally came through. with my parts! received some wheels! i ended up robbing the integy tire/Pro-line wheels off this truck to put on...

this truck as well kind of went on the back-burner for a bit, went to go run it monday and realized i had no idea where my roto start shaft went. was going to test out the new controller on it, (really need to get a Pull start spring) ended up running the other MGT instead. think I'm going to...

Thanks! Makes me want to color a few other accents green on the truck lol

lol thanks man!

got the body done! really happy with it, managed to get the trimming done pretty spot on which i was worried about, few spots that arent perfect, but nothing major.

Tried the dot4 brake fluid option yet?

Well kind of emmbarasingly I marked the film and was going to drill before I peeled it off, kind of got excited though, I was able to mark the rear before I pulled it off all the way so going to use a paint pen on the front to mark locations

lol definitely, was so worried about the spot it bled, but now after i kind of went with it and added to it, gave it a very different theme and I'm really happy with it!

thanks man!

Got the final paint coats on, decals, all that's left is trimming the body! Should have it mounted tomorrow! The green looks so so much better without the masking, didnt really realize how matte it make it look! Super excited with the colors! Used up every bit of both green paints and a full can...

Thanks man! And yeah the darker green does!

well ended up going for a bit different look again, saw some bleeding so decided to kind of finesse it a bit, went with some more "splattered" look, so far am happy, i think it turned out well, but it wasn't what i had initially envisioned. overall am happy with it. definitely going to invest in...

that looks awesome! my mom was a professional sign painter for awhile, so she knows quite a bit about painting, and luckily has some really awesome stuff to do it with, the hard part is my learning of it, and I'm not doing it on something flat. I'm using a masking sheet, its a roll of about 12"...

or for me.... the 5th, maybe 6th... hmm how bout the 10th, that sounds like a good number lol!

Was going to run the truck on Saturday, the battery ended up being dead so ran the 4.6 instead. got started on the painting yesterday, got it masked off for the first color and ended up being about 11:00 by that time so painted the first and color and put it away for the night. the masking...

haha would be no fun, just gettin prepped to go run and have clutch shoe issues!
