Default Mack Firetruck

im adding to my project lineup a older mack firetruck, its a simple snap together model, so it shouldnt be that hard to put together and mock up. heres some pics of it rigth now, still in the box and packaging.

ding ding dingg im goin for an off roading firetruck. im working on putting it together as we speak, i already have the lifted chassis parts ready, im goin gto assemble most of the non colored parts, try my dangest to put a really nice paint job on it, then put every thing together fully wire her up and go, im not going to go full hardcore right now(no $$) so it will just be a simple one for now. and no the rear wheels will probably not be duallied, but instead just the off set pushed back so it will look fine. and then my next project lifted ambulance once i find one

picute updates! painted, personally it looks good to me, some parts broke and what not so at some areas it doesnt look right, but over all i have to say it looks pretty good.







now its time to move onto the making the chassis. shouldnt take too long to set it up.
