Made & fitted the toeholds, plus planked the back end.

Bought a 50kg hanging scale, weight so far is 5.7kg (12lbs) without the battery but with 2x servos & 3 motors. The batteries that came with the scale are going straight in the recycling bin.

Amazing build Jonny.
It looks incredible can’t wait to see what the finished truck will look like.
That will be “ Adventures in paint “.

Sorry to disappoint you Al, but it's going to be 99% olive drab :(

But it’s the way you do the olive drab.
Surely a bit of weathering ??

Added fence posts to the rear plus outer planks & brass tilt supports (BMW Mini for scale). Still need to add more post support & board up the inside, plus add a tailgate, and make the "canvas".

I also need to add some steps at the front - these wil be a single rung rather than the correct 2, and probably quite narrow to avoid them getting torn off the first it encounters any sort of obstacle.
