Put a whole mess of carbs on top of that Viper mill, and slap a trailer on the back... I think you're on to something.

Ditch the big rig hitch, it doesn't look proportional to the rest of the truck. The rest has a really cool look to it though. If you were going to hook up some kind of trailer it might be cool if you could find a fifth wheel hitch or something like that. Something a little smaller. But the dualies do look cool back there. And as Scurv said, lots of carbs and some crazy headers

Thanks guy's for the great comments, as to the engine, it is the slant 6 out of the Deora and now has a 4brl carb, and will have semi type chrome stacks behind the "cab" the body started as the revell 32 coup, I will be using a smaller 5th wheel for it, the one in the pic was for idea, it is my "parts chaser", and will have a "goose neck" 5th wheel "low boy" trailer, I will keep everyone up dated on it, it
my builds won't fit on the last forum I was on.
again thank you

yeah thats gonna be cool  kinda have to agree with the others tho,trailer hitch may be just a little out of scale, but thats a cool idea,dig the duals !! could probably just take a little off the sides of that hitch and make it work,just a thought.keep the pictures coming... |

O.K.! Enough is enough! I will build a weapon to destroy you myself! First I will start by building a gun barrel, then I will attach this wooden stalk and trigger to it, then add booster to it, and now all I need is the explosives that I ordered.... "Ding Dong" Ahhh.... there they are! Delivery man: Package for you mister.... Just sign here.... Me: Thank you very much! Delivery man: your welcome. MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Now you've had it Plasticbutcher!!!!.... Something about that delivery man seemed awfully familiar.... I could've sworn that was a woman in that uniform, and she had a eyebrow piercing.... Oh well..... Now to open the package and....   ouch! |
