I guess I could give you guys her stats...24-36-24...MY BADDDD!
Here are her real stats:
16 1/2" Tall
28" Long
24" Wheelbase (I'm guessing on this one)
The cowl hood is made up of the right and left side roof sections from a cab I had left over from the build.
The frame is custom made based off the clodzilla 2 chassis stretched to 26".
The tubes were cut and stretched 8 1/2".
The chassis brace is made from a scrap 8 x 12 piece of aluminum I got from work.

I hear ya Bro...this one has been real fun to create. The next thing I need work on is the tail light housings and lenses. I’m going to cut out the white part and fill it in with some red plastic. That is after I paint the body.Then glue in the two headlight sections I cut from an old grill to hold the tail lights. That’s if I can remember where I put the darn things. I hope I didn’t toss them in the trash.

She's not getting any paint until next spring when it warms up. I would like to get a lot more run time on her to see how the body holds up. She's only been out three times and not for very long each time. I don't want to spend time and money on a paint job only to have a weak spot show up. You know what they say "Better Safe Then Sorry". Its supposed to snow here Monday and Tuesday so I plan to take a video clip of her plowing.
