Hi Joe, looin' good, I like your work and choice of subjects, big and shiny. I too picked up some of the hex rod to make nut/bolt heads for a 1/9th scale bike kit I am building. Too many shiny screw heads for my liking but I see the need for you to take that route, yours is a working model mine will be static. Looking forward to more pics. Did you see my post re the Colet fire truck?

sense the truck is going to be non military, why put military seat. i want to not newr type seats but something that i can remember from my 69 camaro the seats and interior is going to be black and orange. so i made seat today, wanted you guys imput. they do fold done. i made it out od 3x .125 styrene,.040 for the side straps and rubber legs for the seat cushion.

Joe, nice seats, but it is a military vehicle therefore it would have military seats.

i made some lower bars for the rocker suspension. skocks , tires and rims are here . it takes 2x tires to make one (thnx stu) and 2x rims to make one. so lots of modding to do. still havent thought of which motor to put in it
