I got a little more done over the past few days...
I repainted the diamond plate on the body, getting rid of the unsightly brush streaks from my first lazy attempt, and I was able to finally get the outriggers assembled and installed....(Those were a serious pain in the neck) Also, as I had feared, the engine was a little too far back, so an adjustment was made, and now the body sits nicely where it should.... I was, also, able to get the base for the boom painted and assembled... I figure it would be easier to attach the base, first before I install the rest of the boom assembly...
I put the wheels on, too... That was my favorite part... ?
Here's some pics....
