thanks nut! these are fun trucks to play with, and it is healthy as a gym for me too.
cut the cab up, I want seat belts in this one, its the number one request. I wanted the seat belt reel mount and couldnt get the lower torx out so I creatively cut the cab so I could keep the parts together till I could get that torx out.

the old sculptor saying is "chip away everything that is not the elephant", so I applied that theory to the bed.

get within 50 lbs and you win both showcases. tomorrow (maybe tonight) I will pull the cab back off and remove the motor/trans to build new mounts.
