take that chassis and make a Deuce and a half truck

I was thinking of a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6?6.

This thing is the coolest Tamiya i have seen in a LONG time. Glad they are adding new chassis and designs to the line up. I hope to find a deuce and a half body to throw on this thing.

Also, anyone seen the picture of the geartrain?!? Looks like a TON of gears in this thing. I hope it can handle brushless power. 6x6 with a big 550 SCT motor would be amazing.

Cross RC has a body that would be great to do a DEUCE and a half width

I have the Heavy Dump truck 4wd version under construction. YES. there are a LOT of gears. I saw another pic of the chassis some where and it basically a GF-01 with another gearbox added on back.

Saw this colour scheme at the distributor for Tamiya in Singapore's showroom a few weeks ago.

The school bus body is cool, but the Kong Head rig is awesome!
