I'm going paste the quote from my forum,because I'm just too tired to go back on my forum, copy everything, and edit it to fit this forum.

Recently I enter a competition on another forum, and I've noticed nobody at all voted for me, except me. So I looked at my entery(Blue F-150),and noticed I need to add stuff, like more detail.

So here I am, looking through all the broken model cars, electric parts boxes, ect., just to look for parts to add-on the F-150.


I'm going to repaint some chassis parts, and maybe some body parts also.Hopefully it'll turn out fantastic, but if it doesnt, I'm going to be really mad.

Here is the F-150 from last night(I'm unable to take pictures right now, my batteries for my camera is dead,so I'm recharging them).

I will try to keep everybody updated.

I had a death in the family, so I will not be on alot, infact I might not be on for a week or two. But all the deals I have going on, will still go on.

The best part of the truck is how you made to hood so it opens.

If you look in my garage thread, you can see a pic of the hood, and how rough the paint is. I made it like that, I really dont remember how I did it though.

Hopefully, I might cut out a small circle or something, so it'll look more realistic. Just the bad part about cutting it,is that I might slice my finger AGAIN.

Some of it is done, but I cant take pictures at the moment, I let one of my family members use it for my grandma's memorial.

Wel, most of the F-150 is finished, I think. I dont really wanna work on it for awhile, because I'm really trying to get my car fixed and drivable. I ight even start selling some of my xmods for some extra cash or money, dont know.

Heres the pictures of it right now;

I think it might just be from the camera.


Nice truck though.

No, I painted them white.

The rear suspension works fine, I didnt want that much suspension travel, so I made it stiffer.

I must have left some tape in the rear motor cradel, because it is really goin slow right now.
