Here is the first of five Livermore gun trucks finished. The other four should go a little faster now that I have all the measurements and know what should or shouldn't go in the build. Hope you like it.













Here is the link to all the photos of this build.

Those are two additional gun mounts for the saws. The gun box is designed with four of them. The crews can install them or leave the extra ones off. There are all four in this truck.

Whoa Dave she look great! When I first saw your post with just the box ¾ finished, I thought that this was going to be a great looking Gun Truck. Well Sir…( Hank Hill’s voice) another fine looking truck I’ll tell you what. The tires, are they from the kit or aftermarket. Can’t wait to see the others.
