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 More progress pics to come soon.

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.

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!

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.
