Thanks 6BT! We're anxious to put it to work (and play)...like, yesterday already!

We were hoping end of summer, but that's kinda here...now maybe, by Christmas?? We will rewire the truck ourselves (my son enjoys it

)...not too much going on that's complicated. We stripped out all the stock wiring...not worth fooling with.

Thanks CD!

Dimpled up a strip of 16 ga. and welded it into the step of the latch panel to cover the top of the radiator, was hoping to get it smooth enough to not need any filler...gonna need a bit of a skim coat though.
