what a sweet truck Joe, looks great so far. I can imagine a little aluminum ladder on the rack, yellow/orange water jug, ropes and cables, bumper mounted vise etc. but I'll bet you're going somewhere like that with it. Sure to be a beauty when you're done. :cool:

WOW, a working scale generator!?! You could use a nitro engine to power it & generate enough power to recharge your battery between runs!! :D

Ladder looks good but I didn't think tradies used timber ladders anymore! Oh, and does it come with the obligatory "do not stand on or above this step" warning?

Nice one Joe, looking really scale. Maybe a big dent in fender from the job site :D
