Thanks.
Yea, it took me like 8 months, lol.
But I only worked on it when I had time. I'm a single dad and I'm raising a boy on my own, so I also have to do all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. etc., not to mention going to work.

What also adds a ton of extra time to the build is all the filming and tedious scene setups with the scale "workers" and getting all the part numbers in there.

As far as the build itself, a lot of extra time goes into the wheel wells and floorboards. But I don't think I can skip them since I hate when I see pictures of a nice scale rig but then you can see wires and daylight right through the wheel wells. It just ruins the realism of the truck. I like to build them to look like an actual full scale truck, that's why I always put in drivers too, which also adds time to the build.

Anyway, thanks for the comment.
I started working on my next one today. "thumbsup"

wow.... *bowing down* I've been lurking here for 2 weeks now, looking at builds and checking out the amazing creativity, but I finally signed up after watching this vid. Your worksmanship is amazing. I am super impressed. I'm an FJ owner, so I don't think I could bring myself to buy a Jeep, but looking at your build almost makes me want to hire you to do an FJ for me. well done, man.

Those are some very kind and much appreciated words right there, Thank You.

Sometimes I wonder why I put so much time and effort into my builds, or if I still want to do them, but comments like that make me remember why. "thumbsup"
