Hi all just finished my second bruiser tried something different this time colour wise I did my first box art so wanted something different ,this truck came from the states and has airtronics servos I've switched the wires round on the connectors so they will fit a futaba or acom receiver ,a lot of hours went into this one enjoy the photos ,still not sure if I'm going to put decals on it ,it looks quite nice without either way these are stunning trucks!!!!!!

-a thing of beauty!!!
-pagoda red is the colour
-airtronics servo's
-heavy metal!!!!!!

Beautiful - Don't decal is the answer.

Ouch...!
That colour is HOT you have taste my man. As for decals, well I think as long as you can take them off without damaging the finish then no harm in trying but you shouldn't feel sorry for not having them....

Don't decal. The red color looks great. Just make it more realistic with fine line in black the doors and hood.

This looks great, good colour choice as well.

Looks beautiful! I'm also working on one of these nowadays. These old pick-up trucks are incredible. Cant beat the original!

I would add some nice era specific stripes instead of the full decal set, just my 2 cents worth.

Is airtronics a US thing? I've never seen an Acoms in the states so I'm just wondering what the deal is. The truck is fantastic too!

A very nice looking Bruiser!

I would say 'no decals' for this color. It looks fantastic as it is.

Looks great as it is mate, realistic and not too busy, plus the decals take the focus of those tough lines....
