Gmc#2 Project Completed 7/19/07
 

Ok guys, I was busy for a couple of days, and I also didn't have a camera to take pics; I just got a new camera today and things have calmed down so here's my 3rd xmod truck project.

This is what I started with: '84 GMC truck

The Chasis: F-150 xmod chasis with a few mods

Servo motor mod: HS-50 servo used with custom spur gear and on/off switch option

Functional winch: mirco servo used (cheaper brand) with custom spool and on/off switch also

And finally, since I had already started some work on it I just thought I should post the 1st progress pic now:
I widened the wheel wells, added a custom windshield visor, and working on the rest of the custom offroad side flares

i was impressed by your other projects man,and with that body this is sure to be no exception

psst i know it was a corny joke hahah

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the cool comments!:)

I do drive them around also - it's the only way I make sure everything is secure and durable. They may have that "shelf queen quality work" but I run these babies for fun and I build them tuff too with stand it the terrain, the only thing that ever needs touch-ups is the paint but I don't always try to scuff it too much.:bigwink:

not bad

another one of your great work!
edit: is that the expedition chassis because i see the black parts

xomdificationer it cant be the ex. chasis it doesn't have the spring set up

thats going to be an excellent project, along with the expedition, blazer, g35 roadster, other gmc, all the trail rigs, the army f-50's.

Updates on project - 7/3/07
 

Hey guys, sorry for taking so long to update this one. I've been busy with my job and i have also been doing some other project on the side for a customer too.

Anyways, here's what I did so far:
I've widened the wheel wells and added the fender flares on all 4 sides already. I just need to sand them alittle bit more for that smooth look then i have to work out how to mount the rear clip in place. I have also removed the winch from the chasis and will be placing it under the hood of the model itself - this is due to an additional feature that will be added soon.

Here's a couple pics of it so far:

The winch is going to be placed under the body after the paint job is completed.

Just a Mock set up of the body on the chasis - no mount clips are on there at this moment.

More updated to come soon!

I HAVE THAT SAME THING BUT I DONT HOW TO MAke a front clip for it can u give me tips and if ur chassie is a bit short add 3 gen1 bearings to the spacer and it will be perfect

the other feature in the front with the winch, am i thinkin what your thinking... are you gonna put another motor on it in the front runing the front and rear on their own motors. or are u making a plow for it

I'll take a pic of the mount that i'll make for this one when and i'll post it for you to see.:nod:

Well the price depends on which model, mods and paint scheme you want - but to give you a rough estimate - Most of these trucks will be going for $75 - $100+ ( price range is increased when more custom work is done);)

The addition feature is a custom made roller thingy that the goes in the front - it allows the winch cable to wheel in and out from the middle ( I forgot the name of it :-? ) Anyways, that's what i'll be adding to it.

cool and mine has an electric whinch to but i doubt its as syrong as urs is more for show then function, and hm mould it be for a blazer if we suples the chassie?

It all depends on the what body you want and paint job also.:nod:

PM sent.:bigwink:

an blk one with the pinstiping so same thing but no 2tone

this project sucks.

can i have it?:p
