Dude, I love it just as much as the real one. I've always wanted to build of a replica of it. But you beat me to it.

[Pete359]

:omg: Man, that looks like the real one!
Good job by converting it!:first:
R E S P E C T !

:Good Point:Done!

[Pete359]

Where did you get those sentercaps for the rear rims?
Want some myself on my new build you see.

And what does Richie Acosta think of your replika build of his truck?

[hauler_10-4]

You can get them at any auto parts store for $5.00.

[Pete359]

What do I ask for there?

[Thorsteenster]

That sure is one sweet looking rig.
I gotta ask though, maybe its the style, but isn't it a little long or the sleeper a little short?

It's the new style "got wheelbase"

[Thorsteenster]

Those big tube stacks look really good, aluminum or stainless?

[Suprachrgd82]

Oooooooooooh, Hauler.....it's sooooooo big....:omg:


That truck really is awesome! It looks great, simple, dark, long as a football field...attention to detail is flaweless. The big straight pipes, chrome tank straps, Alcoa wheels, and big chrome bumper are all indicative of a full scale trucker that loves his rig!

[hauler_10-4]

Stacks are aluminum 1/2" tubing from Lowe's. Cost me $5.00 to make(lol). Thanks for the comment guys.

[Thorsteenster]

Any plans for stack flaps?

Thor you should be smaked for even thinkin that! Lol

[hauler_10-4]

Where did you get those sentercaps for the rear rims?

Hey Pete ask for chrome license plate bolt covers. The kit comes with 4 and a plastic insert. Put the plastic insert on before you put the wheel nut on. Then just snap the chrome cover over the insert. If you need pics let me know.

Jeremy your the man with can! Still think that's one of the best can jobs I've ever seen. I'd love to have both of your ladies!

[hauler_10-4]

Maybe one day soon i'll put her up for sale. I enjoy building them more then driving them. Since i finished her, i maybe run her for 10 minutes.

[hauler_10-4]

Nice. The MFC sounds good too, man I got to get me one of those.

[Pete359]

Love the lights!

[BrianFromIowa]

Nice flatbed trailer dude!
Not as long as mine thow, but it's awesome! :yourock:

[monsterbeetleguy]

Looks great Jeremy. I know I love mine that Rod built for me! Not sure I could part with mine I dont think. I know it sure was easier having him do it but I think I would have done the same thing eventually. The stock Tamiya flatbed is just so short.

Pete359 have you posted pics of your trailer yet? i dont remember seeing it....

[Pete359]

monsterbeetleguy, You can see some of it here: http://www.tamiya3speed.com/forum/showthread.php?t=411

[tankrbr]

I would like a set of decals and maybe the tool boxes.

[hauler_10-4]

the tool boxes you can get from gardentrucking.com

[Pete359]

The reflex tape too ;)

[hauler_10-4]

He sells the tape also plus many alumunim parts for the tamiya trucks.
