Dodge A100 Monster Truck

[Kruzn]

This is another old build. Used the Lindberg Little Red Wagon for the body and old-school leaf spring suspension and axles from unknown monster truck kit. Powered by Hemi of course!

A lot of scratchbuilding and details on this one, including:

- box tube frame and rear hitch

- converting the axles for poseable steering

- working "hydraulic" rams on the steering

- full plumbing and electrical wiring

- working "hydraulic" rams on the forward-hinged body

- double tube rollbar

- instrument control panel borrowed from a helicopter kit

That's too cool! I love old school monster trucks, grew up with 'em. Was the biggest fan of Bigfoot and USA 1 in the early days. Your Dodge looks beautiful. You really captured the look with a unique body style.  Really like the operating features you built in. Looks like the tires and suspension are from an MPC kit. Keep up the good work.
