HL Truck Mods

Heng Long/WPL are now manufacturing 1/16 scale RC trucks, so it seemed sensible to create a forum area dedicated to the amazing things that members are doing with them. Post your builds, mods, and tips here.

I done some more parts for my Willys Jeep JJRC 1/11.5ish scale thingy

My 2nd one i have started fitting out with 50cal & 30cal with a fold down tow bracket :)

I also had a shot and tarting up the interior of our Ford V3000 replica truck. I wanted the interior to look a little better. Unfortunately no pictures existed that i could find of the real interior. I stupidly forgot to get some when i saw a real one at Omaha beach. Doh!
So i used artistic license to make it look a bit more different

Next jobs on the list that are printing as we speak are some special new parts for our MAN Kat1 8x8 go anywhere truck

Yeah, that thing's a real little beast. As you saw, it'll go so fast that making a sharp turn will flip it right over.

The head and tail lights are installed, I just need to wire them up, and the sound system will go in the back in a couple of crates, but I won't be cutting a hole in the floor on this one for the speaker. With the canvass top on the back it won't matter and I should get good sound.

More to come ...

The truck looks great Gary, I used the same sound units on my deuce, blitz and Morris quad builds, they are very good for the price and work well :thumbup:
