I'm not very knowledgeable in moving parts, but I can tell you what looks good.

This truck is pretty cool. I've only been in the hobby for a few months, but it's different than most of the scale trucks I've seen.
From a newbie's standpoint, this truck definitely stands out.

I can't say that I like the cage a whole lot where it covers the body.

If you don't mind my photoshop-ing your picture, in my opinion, I think it would look a little better like this...

(your pic on the left, my pic on the right)

Vs.

...maybe even without the bars over the roof.

Just my preference, but I don't like the body being skewed by too many accessories. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Everything else about this truck's appearance is very nice.

If you don't like my editing of your picture, I can remove and delete it no problem.

Hey welcome back around

For a wip it is looking very good, the yellow was the right color, stands out well. :tmb

Thats a serious looking stinger upfront, very nice :tmb. As for gearboxes, the good ol' pede trans is tough to beat for price, parts availablity and toughness. A properly adjusted slipper clutch doesn't hurt either, and saves on broken drivetrain parts. It's all a matter of personal preference though. Nice work!

Hey,Will.you know you never did send me the rcmt decals I asked you for a while back.:spaz

Whatcha got behind that yellow beast? I think I see a red and white Chevy-bodied truck of some kind. Judging by the yellow one, you must have some nice rigs. Post up some pics and keep us updated on the progress of your W.I.P. :tmb
