hi cheers, hmm got a few on the go at the moment, just wanna get the ideas for chassis done then can bolt on the goodies to run them:chef:
 
hi , trying to get 10mm tubing was a real problem, none of the steel stockholders would keep it being so small, i found it at B&Q at £3.00 a meter, but that mega money, in the end i found amada steel in cornwall who sold it for £5.75 + vat a 6m lengh , buy a brake pipe bending tool which caters for 10mm and your away
 
hi voo, its not an exact copy of one, its not to scale either, had to compromise abit, the down tube from the b pillar to the rear is to suport the roll bar, it will have a removeable bar to make the rear a box shape like the trucks, plenty of room for paint and decals
 
hi, cheers, im thinking it should have been a bit wider now to cover the wheel better, gonna put some panels on and paint it up and use it as a weid sandrail thing and start again :trout:
 
hi thanks, i think that i'll finish this one up and then get me some 5t wheels/tyres and build the chassi/body to cover them, i'll leave this one as a dakar racer truck with the rollcage out back and build the next one more lorry looking, just come back from me hols and been thinking of a couple more projects, don't help watching madmax 1&2:trout:
