Would be sweet if you could make it out! It's close to home this event too, Coal Creek. Let me know if you need anything! Would be awesome to have a little rundown make sure all the screws are tight event under Guido before you head up to Montana!

- Thread starter Grizzly4x4

I have not played with my dolls much so the joints aren't very loose. :ror:
Definitely don't want to get stuck in low range during the Tank Trap. :shock:
Sounds good Todd. We'll see what happens. "thumbsup"

Did I miss something on the 5ch mod?
so what is it?
front rear winch and 2 spd?

front rear winch and 2 spd?
Yes, 2spd is 4th channel and rear winch is 5th. I don't know if I can get the rear winch figured out in time though.

I'm in the same boat.. Have the rear winch planned, but I need to get the front one working first. :ror:
Exactly. :ror:

Were either gonna have a really good time beating the snot ouuta these things, or a really good time talking about all the stuff we planned to do :lmao:
Or a little of both. "thumbsup":lmao:

It's looking great Chris. "thumbsup" Tell me how much Jack Daniels does it take to build a truck like Guido?
For this rebuild, a couple gallons. :ror: Actually I have not been drinking much of it lately, I've been cutting back on soda to lose weight. Been drinking more Coors Light.
Thanks Norm. "thumbsup"
I am painting it. I have to drill the mounting holes, narrow and shorten the hood, and trim things down to fit so there is no time to have someone else do it.
Cool. I really like the color your painting it. I paint most of my Comp body that color. 8)

Early retirement?

Haha. Nothing exciting to report, I've just been getting this fuel cell finished and the mounts done so I stuff it with electronics. Also wiring up the switches so I can put the tranny hump in for the last time. I tested the electronics today and all systems are go. "thumbsup"
Everybody just wants to see the body so I figured I'd spare the details. :ror:
A little; War Pig is a formidable competitor you know. Oh, did you mean..........nah. :mrgreen::ror:

Piggy who ???????:lmao:
Going to be some great driving and awsome rigs this year, including the revamped Guido"thumbsup"
Piggy who. Hahahaha :lmao:
I can't believe how long it took to do the body this weekend. It took a whole day just to trim, fit, and drill mounting holes. I got paint on it yesterday but it was not dry enough to peel the paint mask off for the final color so you guys will have to wait for that. A big thanks to Pat (62Pyro) for helping me out with a Bronco body from his stock. I really appreciate it bud. "thumbsup"
I did get the Robinson gears in the tranny, all the electronics in the fuel cell.
The wiring is 99% done, I just need to mount the 9V battery and the winch controller board. Getting the Torquemaster, BEC, and 2 RXs in the fuel cell was tight but it all fit nicely. There's 30 2mm screws holding the lid on the fuel cell. :shock::ror:
The lightbar is not finished but it's mounted at least. That makes 91,000 mcd on the front of Guido. :ror:
The interior is in. Thanks to Norm for the steering wheel. I really appreciate the hookup bud. "thumbsup"
The Robinson steel gears are in the tranny and lubricated with Rocksmith Gear Jelly. Thanks to TCS for the quick shipping. "thumbsup"
I need to finish up the snorkel, paint the last coat of color on the body, and then just button things up. I might end up installing the Super 300's in the hotel room. :ror:
Here's how it looked at 3am.
