Chevy/Ford C15 Canadian & British Trucks
yes we have started working on some smaller support trucks from the C15 stable of Chevy/Ford made vehicles

Still developing the model as have only printed the first prototype
Will use a single 180 motor and transfer case and use modified WPL axle internal parts coupled with our own Gear casings for a robust model.

Will run very nicely on a 2s lipo 1000mah and is a very small scale truck.

We are going to do a longer version aswell, and will upgrade the motor if necessary, but the duties these trucks undertook were lighter weight work compared to some of the alrger trucks we make

Oh, the Diamond T and the C15 make me drool. There must be a bank to rob around here someplace. But, gee, what is an "alrger truck"? @)

As you will notice Will has been busy playing with laser cutter, so trying to change parts where possible to be made with wood if in reality they were. Adds an extra level of detail and upgrade for these models
FDM for structure, resin for detail and complex shapes and laser cut wood where applicable. We also like to make our own metal chassis rails

Was that C15 ever used with an Ambulance body?

(HDP is looking for a bank to rob.)

Some more pictures, Will managed to fix the tpu 3d printer for the tyres. Lots of tweaking and fettling.

So its just ready for a wire up and test. We need to make sure the driveline is working well and smoothly before we send it on its way.
We are tempted to re-design the driveline with something more substantial for torque, but lets see how well it does first as there is very little space on this truck
