I recently got an email from a guy named Lonnie Phillips.

He said he's loved my work for many years, and asked me if I've ever made any reps of real trucks, I said yes, my site is full of em. He meant non- rep MT's. I said sure, I've done a few of those too, There is a truck there on my site that is a rep of SLO_HotShoe's real truck, Power Stroke.

He asked me if I'd make him a truck like his real one, he owns a 90's Ford F-150 that he shows nationally, at shows everywhere. He calls it Rigid Articulation. It is as close to a real Monster Truck as your gonna get, it has the suspension, and all, except the tires. I did it for him, even though I have a broken hand, I think it turned out pretty good.

So if anyone wants a really killer truck, loaded with detail, I thought I should post here when it's done, well.. it's done.

Before anyone says it, the tires on my truck are the one's he's gonna put on there, so according to the pics, it's not correct, but it will be.

Oh yeah, I emailed it to him, and said Merry Christmas.

He wrote back just happy as can be, he was very excited, said his daughter already wrecked it a few times, *sigh* lol

That's what it's for I guess.

Hehehehehehehehehe

Did you ask HOW she wrecked it?

Was it crushed on the left, then the center, then the right?

Whatever it was, it must have cost thousands of dollars to repair it :)

Yep, those there are the only ones.

I planned to make one long ago, in fact I started one, just never finished it. I have it on disc somewhere.

I someday have plans to do a Dallas Cowboys truck too.

Right now I'm trying to build a rep of my other real truck, soon as I figure out how to make dents, that'll stay. [:P]

I had a similar ouchy not long ago.

Not very "similar", though.

I was riding on a yellow plastic tractor that I had fixed (though I am a "little big" big for it now :) ) and I was trying to keep the chain from falling off AGAIN, and I was rolling the wheels with my hands (to get a running start) and I accidently kept my right index finger on the wheel. And by a miracle, I didn't lose a drop of blood!
