Wow I like it, that body looks great on your setup. now all you need is a wing mount :)

Have you decided what your exact setup will be?

Thanks guys. I would have gone with a wing but it would be really hard with the way my towers are set up... Not sure the rear tower could handle some heavy landings on a wing. Its too bad I cant get the body lower, theres so much empty space between the top of the chassis and the top of the shell!

...looks great Joey...I look forward to you getting it driveable...

Well, here it is. I did this all late last night, and without proper masking tape. I only had 1" thick tape and no pinstriping tape. So the black line turned out not to be much of a smooth line, but more of a varying width, splattered paint looking line! But it worked out well because I like the look, gives it kind of a wild look instead of a perfect smooth line. The paints used were white, black and flourescent red-orange. Though it looks like pure orange to me (its even more orangy in person). I wish the color had a little more red in it but hey I cant complain for a first time paint job. It had so much flat orange I threw a bunch of decals on it, Im tempted to throw a bunch more on but I dont want to overdo it. The white on the truck bed is just some leftover material from the window masking sheet, I wanted to add some color in the rear, it was too orange!

EDIT: I just realized I had the camera set on "flourescent white balance" so the color is off a little. The orange is more rich and "pops" alot more in person.
