Awsome Project I did today!!!

Well it was cold here in MA today soo i went to oceanstate job lot for some cheapie gloves. I went walkin around lookin for some gloves and went down the toy isle... I looked at this RC truck.. I thought it was a f150 like most are.. Till I looked closer and it said Ranger on the windshield.. I looked even closer and it was a 98-01 excab flareside style.. Just like my truck... So I bought it for 15$ and took it home.. Went to walmart later and got the exact match paint color in duplicolor can and sanded it down and painted it :) let me know what u think

you should fire the body shop that did the paint job.

Pretty cool, all I ever see out here are 150 RC or other toys.
