thanks guys, Im having the side saddle fuel tanks machined out of aluminum by a buddy right now.. Its also gonna have a big reflexion drop down type rear bumper and polished aluminum tow hooks comming out of the front bumper like the harley hauler f-350's have.. I will be adding a goose neck hitch inside the bed and will be making the trailer to match.. As soon as I get my truck back from my buddy, I will put her together and share some more pics.. He thinks I should make it a mudder, But I cant see destroying this rig.. Here are a couple more pics of it...

I forgot to add all the lights will work on it too..



And this is what it looked like before I decded to make a hauler

That is quite a collection. The most RC's I've ever had at one time was 4 and it was hard keeping that many organized let alone 30 or so, lol...Now I'm down to 1!

Ive always thought the King Cab was a cool looking truck. But never held one in my hand much less driven one. What's your attraction? Sentimental value, or some other reason?
Dont listen to Kenny, the F650 is hot :tmb

Gimbal, Im an retired airforce brat, And my father was really strict with me and my brother... We werent allowed to have anything unless we truly needed it.. So I never got to have one.. So 2 years ago I accidentaly stubled across one on ebay, And I must admit it took me back to that day that I seen one for the first time.. So being new to ebay at the time i put a bid in that I thought was reasonable..The guy that wanted it as bad as I did decided to really out bid me.. I finally had the highest bid and he outbid me at the last 5 seconds of the bid.. I was so butt hurt, That every kingcab and hi lux he bid on I outbid by $100.. I had got a nice settlement in a car accident so I could afford to just blow the money.. (NOT RECOMMENDED)!!! He finally quit bidding on those trucks, So I did too.. But in a way it takes me back to the younger days... I feel like an idiot, But he shouldnt have messed with me..LOL

I used to have a King Cab and and still have my Hilux. I raced them both back when they were popular and I liked them a lot. They ran very smoothly and handled really well. The ball diff's were weak though. They ran great when they were new but the diffs needed rebuilt pretty often.

Nice looking lot of trucks.
