About this creation

Technic Figure scale Flatbed truck.

Only place to put the battery pack.

Nice rounded fuel tanks with integrated steps. Another on the drivers side.

Made the truck resemble an old 1980 International truck. Cab should of been wider, because it makes it look like an 18 wheeler, but its not supposed to be :P

Steering reinforcements

Should of made the cab bigger lol

It's cramped in here!

Didn't put too much detail into the engine, but it needed one.

Cramped interior again

The flatbed was the 1st part I made. Wanted to make sure I had enough (wood) that I used from my minifigure play theater :D

Chrome exhaust tip. Adds 5 more horsepower :P

The bottom

Steering assembly. I use sairels compact steering system, because its small and strong, but not good if you want accurate steering

That big plate is my throwout plate. Too much torque and it pops out to prevent gear damage. Its more of a flaw, but I see it as a feature.

Biggest problem with driving it offroad. Very low ground clearance.

Hauling big tires for a big dump truck.

Octan oil tank

Industrial generator that can also run.

Engine is geared up twice to make it have high RPMs

Obligatory toy truck :D

Cute

Playing with truck after a long day driving.

Took the bed off.

Access to the drivetrain

Stripped down to the frame.

Outdoor shots.

Thanks for looking. Please rate and comment :)
