Does anybody else build models of their full size vehicles?


Recommended Posts

I have built/raced RC buggies and trucks my whole life. I still have 6 or so that run and get used regularly as well as a couple of shelf queens.

The one I always wanted was the Tamiya Blackfoot. That was Ford F-150 flare side.

They released an updated/re release version in 2016 and I had to have it. I put in a brushless motor and lipo batteries so it runs for ever! Well, until the dog catches it.

Here is a nifty link to what it looks like, mine is a little more dusty and bruised from constant use. However I have picked up an original decal sheet so looking forward to putting those on, a lot of the licenses expired from 1980ish to 2016.. the new decals did not sit right with me, eBay to the rescue again.

WEll, dang if that ain't cool. Looks like a lot of fun.
