    Here's a model that started as a car, broke, then was revived as a monster truck 😎👍, this is my nephew's truck that I built for him

    Small update here from the past few days I took a break usually I end up looking at reference photos and getting back to things, so here's what I've done, after I get these on the chassis it's transfer case time ☺️😁😎👍

    Great work both are fantastic 👍😎😁

    Love the straps on your engine tried to do that with my engine, did you make those or are they made by a vendor? Great engine work I'll try that on my next build 👍😎

    So finally got the engine in the chassis and finished with the wiring of the engine now onto the cab, seat, switches, and suspension components still have to scratch build a radiator and gearbox we're getting close to the end of this one 😎😁👍

    Here is what I've done on the chassis might be a little bit unnoticeable I am now pretty much finished with the chassis minus the little white spots all over and the mounting of the engine and cab components and suspension

    I appreciate all the input and thanks for the insight 💯 🙂 👍🙏

    Hi everyone I'm trying as best as I can to scour the interwebs for the answer to a burning question, what are the hoses coming out of the valve covers connected to?

    Hey I'm back after a break with some small updates, I just did an entire "paint cycle" on the engine before it goes into the chassis so while that dries up I'm going to work on a few chassis pieces and then get started on the decals 🙂 🙏 hopefully all goes well with that...

    Thanks I forgot to mention that the engine will look like it's sitting higher on the model compared to the real truck, I have two other monster truck kits in the photos I've posted I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the destroyer II kit I plan on getting three other ninja turtle kits and I'll get started on those once they're all here👋😎👍 take care and see you on the next one

    Hi everyone I'm building a monster truck and I'm wondering what the hoses coming from the valve covers on both sides are connected to?
  13. MonsterFan88
    Looks like the engine will sit "in scale" about maybe 3 1/2 - 4" in comparison to the real truck I used the Raminator and 97 F-150 engine to build this monster engine I'm satisfied with the outcome ❤️ 👍😎
  14. MonsterFan88
    I'm trying not to make a mess of the engine so far I'm satisfied with the look of the chassis and engine together looking great 💯😎👍

    Where can I post some pictures of the monster truck Show I was at yesterday?
  16. MonsterFan88
    Here's a small update on this monster engine finally finished the hoses and lines just a few things left and I think we'll be done 👍
  17. MonsterFan88
    I want to build a realistic truck that looks like those "monster" trucks hoping I can do that in the future 😜 😁
  18. MonsterFan88
    Getting further along with this and as I near closer to the end I'm plagued by more ideas do any of the forum members remember these things 🎆🎉😊
  19. MonsterFan88
    Slowly getting better 💪 😀
  20. MonsterFan88
    And we're steadily rolling along as usual I will get some more progress done as I continue with this monster engine 👍😎
  21. MonsterFan88
    It's my first crack at this, mostly using tons of reference photos and about 10% imagination it's going well so far 🙏😊😎👍
  22. MonsterFan88
    As I expected it would take a long time here we are with the linkages and eventual hoses😎👍😁
  23. MonsterFan88
    So here's the engine so far, it's my first crack at this I'm going to try and put linkages on this as best I can I don't know the exact color of the shiny Silver components so that's why I painted them that way at the end of the day it's all about fun 😊
  24. MonsterFan88
    I've been staring at and eyeballing reference photos the entire time, the engine won't entirely mimic the original but "as close as possible" is the idea plus, I've never wired up an engine ever so a monster truck I thought would be a great idea to try that on, happy building everyone 😎 👋
