This is the full build of my custom Chevy crew cab RC truck. I began with two @fmsmodelRC K10 RTR's and finished with one long truck. Some extra detail pieces such as wheels and camper shell were provided by @AMPROEngineering
That axle launch felt like every project I have ever done. "I got this. Just let me handle this small crucial parrr.... OMG!!!! It's under the couch in the next county!".
@@turksandjerps Welcome! It's absolutely amazing and super cool! I also saw the post on Instagram the other day. When will this be given away? I hope I'm the lucky winner!
@@ClassicSteelRC I need to get a date figured out but it will be very soon perhaps within a week. Luckily you're already following me on there so keep an eye out.
That’s freaking awesome I’d been debating on doing the same thing but as a dually, might just have to actually do it now. Great job on that Chevy, thanks for sharing with us.
This was like stepping back in time and looking at my dad's old truck. The ethereal music gave it a magic kind of feeling. Amazing build. This is super cool!
Great work, it's mindblowing how much was actually involved in this and gives me a terrible pit of doom in my stomach thinking about tackling it. Loved the cats. Mek in the tire, genius - i don't know how many time's I've knocked mine over and ruined the counter and whatever else it touched. I watched it all, seeing a master at his craft vs how I do things is a joy. Thanks for making me feel like a complete n00b :)
It's not a lot of work, I just make it look hard. I'm glad people like to see the cats too. I love when they hop up and steal the show. I learned the hard way spilling my MEK. I'd say that tire has been stuck to that bottle for about a decade now and I haven't knocked it over since. Knock on wood.
@@turksandjerps Oh no you make it look like less work than it is lol. I recall seeing the tire/mek on your og builds but never appreciated as to why until a few tip overs and a decade later ha ha.
WOW!! I haven't even watched the vid yet, but that truck looks terrific!! Like you just bought it & too it out of the box like that! You've got some MAD SkiLz! Sub'd Rung!
There was me thinking the truck body was stock and you'd made a demountable camper back for it. amazing work! It kind of reminds me of Rocinante but cooler looking.
dude you only have 8k subs you should have way way more as your contents awesome so loved how you transformed a nice rc into a out of this world rc , company's should take you in for the development team - beautiful Chevy my friend 🙂
Man I wish that was mine 😲 that’s some amazing work, you can’t even see a body line where you put them together! Where did you get those wheels? Great work 👍🏻
This guy amazes me with the amount of work and details he puts in these hard-shell RCs!!! You motivated, man, to go the same path with my K10. I like your cat too, what is his/her name?
This came out so good. This is full of really great fabrication ideas. I admit I was surprised to see you add the roof ribs after some priming. Was it a detail you thought it needed after the initial styrene work or just something you like to add at certain points in the process?
Thanks! I primed before the roof ribs because I wanted to make sure the roof was 100% smooth before going any further. Consider it a guide coat to spot imperfections. It would be a lot harder to correct after the ribs were installed.
So cool!! How did you know how long of a bracket thingy needed for the body? Did you just put the body together and then measure the new wheel base? And are there kits for that chassis extension bracket thing? Or is that custom too. Sorry if this is worded badly
