k100 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 (edited) This is my shot at the California Hauler. I shorten the frame ,ran air and electrical lines . I try to make the front axle steerable by drilling through the ends but I screwed up and drilled through the side . I ended up cutting the ends off and used parts from a Revell 379 . My plan is to have Buds on the rear and 10 hole wheels on the front. I also closed in the battery box. Edited April 22, 2016 by k100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBad Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 That is going to be a tough lookin' mother... I like it! The front wheels, the 2 holes in the back, the paint scheme... The MCA exhaust stack(s)... It's gonna look better than the Bill Signs Pete! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas Parchas Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Nice work so far, I like it a lot and I like also the paint scheme you have in mind. Maybe streching a litlle bit the frame and adding a headache rack. Kostas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
