abedooley Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 I jsut now realized the date this forum was started... OOPS. That is one sick ride though. I wonder if there would be any R/C rims and tires that don't happen to look like R/C rims and tires. How sick are the lights.
69 440 6bbl RR Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 nice job on that 350 I really like the colors
Scott Colmer Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Glad I didn't miss this one! GREAT WORK!!!!!!!! Scott
BigGary Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 This truck is wicked. Great custom build I think he must leave it home and stake it down if the wind is over 20 mph. Gary
RatRod Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 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.

MikeeD Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 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...

jedimastergary Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 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
Kaleb Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) 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? Edited May 4, 2010 by Kaleb
Romell R Posted May 5, 2010 Author Posted May 5, 2010 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
Kaleb Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 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 may just go with leds under the dash. And my 300 allread had a Fosgate sound 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
Romell R Posted May 5, 2010 Author Posted May 5, 2010 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 may just go with leds under the dash. And my 300 allread had a Fosgate sound 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 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.
Kaleb Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 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!!
Sixx Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Romell, not only an AWESOME build but an AWESOME paint job too!!!!! Great work man! Sixx
Romell R Posted June 4, 2010 Author Posted June 4, 2010 Im pushing this up to the top for my buddy to see.....

Duntov Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 Just the modeling of the geometry / engineering to get this rig where it is some SUPERB crafstmanship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heck I dont know about engineering...i just threw all the parts in the air and thats how they landed LOL! thx for the compliments guys!
Brokentail58 Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 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.
