Re: Mr. Simpson Build Thread

Derek, it's cool to see all the progress. This is going to be a pretty intense truck when you're done. Saw that you went with your chassis component color on the calipers, and I think that's a good call. I tend to go with silver so that with the rotors it presents a consistent background for the wheels. But I can understand wanting to differentiate the calipers from the rotors. Your truck is going to be fun to drive. Was thinking about you wanting to hinge the bed floor and if you are going to use it to haul things sometimes that might be difficult. Maybe you can hinge the whole bed? Still presents difficulty with the gas filler and probably some other things. But hinging it to the side like a grand piano would help people understand that it was to display the undercarriage, and not like a dump bed. Just a thought. Really enjoy watching this go together.
