<b>That is an awesome build, and some great scratch building too. I love all the working lights, and opening doors as well!!! But.....It is freakishly over lifted, and wouldn't be street legal in real life.</b>

I dont know where your from but in cali this would be street legal , but thatnk for your compliment

Oh man...that is one SERIOUS 4-wheeler!

Here in Oregon, we see a lot of high riders like that..but THAT...THAT is unreal...I love it!!!

Absolutely love those dually's!!

man, that's a superb build!

And everything is right on, tire size, air gaps, shocks...take it from a guy who see's these things everyday. It looks like a functional truck actually, and LEGAL..well, in the Pacific Northwest anyway... :D

Looks wild great detail on it nice scratch buildingsaw a few pics and

thought it was wild Yeah it would be street leagle just might have to

lower the bumpers and the head lights a littlenice lift looks like a

monster truck when it comes out of a trailer before the big tires go on.

Think I might have to build my F250 with a lift

and some bigger tires and fix the motor up a bit

Now that just makes me sick :) I got to step up my 300C now...What are you using for lights? I have 3mm and 5mm l.e.d. (the 5 being too large).

Also what do you use for the subs?

1st off thanks for the comment, And to tell you the truth I use any size LED because they can be ground down or sanded to any shape i need. I usually look for color or brightness when i shop for LED's and i buy them from Radio Shak. 2ndly I cheated on the subs this time I usually turn my own from aluminum but this time i took the speakers from the Monogram Caddy Escalade that kit has some sweet speakers and stuff in it. And 3rdly I wanna see that 300C of yours LOL! have a great day! Romell

All I have right now is primer stage going through 4K sand and then plain paper the hood is in its first stage of paint though. I have neon wire for the underglow and under dash but im second guessing myself on that :D may just go with leds under the dash. And my 300 allread had a Fosgate sound :lol: so I have 3 subs 2 inverted(5 total) and one amp. I will only be using the 3 that have face o yea 2 in the door.

The floor is getting the flocking and the seats are going to be 2 tone flocking :lol:

That sound like it's gonna be tight but if you dont mind i'd like to make an suggestion, ... dont do the flocking on your seats flock is totally out of scale for seats (makes em look like you have seat covers on) try using flats to simi gloss paints on your interior parts it give them the leather look. and if you can, use your air brush to apply the paints for a smooth application. colors like tan, red, black, brown, blue all make good colors choices for leather. check out the interior pics of any of my builds and you will see i always paint the seats and panels i only flock the floor (cause it makes great carpet) Only a suggestion. of course it's your project always do what makes you comfortable. Have a great day my friend! Romell R.

ah ok I was tired of trying to keep it on anyway lol it was staying pretty good but im trying to keep some at scale....now I just need a moter to go with it seeing that it didnt come with one.

The 300C dictates that you put a Hemi under the hood try a Ross Gibson motor if your up to the challange!! :unsure:

I love the truck. I work at a suspension shop and have built springs for trucks that looked just like the ones on the rear of your truck. They are not even close to street legal in Michigan. If I lived closer I would grovel at your feet, you are the master.
