Theses many chassis would make me think of conining it to a custom T-Rex. Like Mal and Brent do😂. I got two bodies. A failled effect painting (now it's for running) and flake shelf queen. I can suggest first think of the stickers you want to put on and then about the colour. A bonbon colour would be cool.

LOL! It would be more like a centipede buggy! Once I am done with what I need from it I will probably bundle them up in little resto bundles (chassis, arms, bumper and rear end housings) and send them off to new homes either on eBay or just as gifts. It is way more than I need but I could not pass up on the deal for all of it. For the Kong Head, I have a few ideas of my own and then some great suggestions from all of you guys here. I will weigh the options and time/materials needed and go with one of them! LOL! So far the gun metal and silver theme is favorite but Rex mentioned white and maybe some rust which made me think of a race truck livery, do white with some race decal and weather it like a giant desert racer or something... so many options LOL!!

I certainly don't have a need for so many but I could not pass on the lot! The Kong Head should be a real blast and I know it will be great fun to drive! The Volve dump truck was great fun so I know this one will be. I think it is going to get a 19t or 17t Holmes retro sport motor in it to ramp up the excitement a little! Cady apple red would look cool and I wish I could find a color like the little Redcat Ascent 18 I have, that would be perfect!!!

Now I will have 5 so once I am done with the resto and possibly building another from the parts I will move on the rest to good homes in need of new bits here! The Kong Head should be a blast, I have never seen a video of one where they were not having a blast with them!

Once I am done with what I need and can do with the parts the rest will get moved onto good homes. The Kong Had should be a fun one! Old and patinaed is an option for sure! The really gnarly Mad Max style is better on the hard bodies as it is just so much easier to mount bits and pieces to the body for accents and to grunge them up. The lexan bodies it is just some weathering that can be done to avoid bits falling off! It can still look very cool so it is a good option. Thanks Pete

Yes, it was a lot of stuff I could not pass up on getting as it is much harder and way more expensive to get here! I did find a black chassis with the help of another viewer so that is on its way and once I am done with the resto and possible building a runner from the other parts I will bundle up the rest in groups (small resto packages king of) and send them off to new homes either through eBay of gifts. The Kong Head should be a blast! I am still up in the air on the colors. I do have the king yellow bus to do as well so that one will be in the box art and I have the Volvo dump truck so I don't think I want that many yellow 6x6 trucks LOL. I am leaning towards a gun metal and silver look possibly. Maybe some white racing stripes down the middle.... that would look cool too! Thanks for the suggestions!

LOL! It is a slippery slope! Definitely a gateway drug to a hoarding addition! I am still learning what to do and what not to do and I have actually logged out to not keep scrolling and finding things to watch. I do well on eBay doing that, I watch stuff all the time and refrain from buying 90% of it. This one is different, I want to bid on 90% of it and that gets me in trouble! LOL! I know I will be back on there in the future but for now I am ignoring it. We will see how long that lasts! I did think of black but looking at the instruction the whole back of it in black so I am thinking it will look it may be overkill in all black. I am leaning towards maybe gun metal and silver or pearl in the gun metal maybe to sparkle it up some! Maybe gunmetal on top and dark red or burgundy on the bottom maybe.... Thanks for the input and comments as always my friend! have a great week!

It is a learning curve over there for sure. I try and keep searches simple on there, putting in too much in the search is usually more harmful than helpful it seems. Use searches like "Tamiya RC", "Kyosho RC", or if you are looking for certain types use the specific kit or chassis type like "TT02 rally" or "DT-03" and then just scroll through the results. It is better to scroll through a lot rather than potentially miss a lot of them. At least that has been my experience with it so far.

I thought of black but looking at the instruction the back area of the truck is a lot of black already and I am not sure what I could change it to to break it up. It would look sharp but it will require some head scratching to figure out the back of it in the right color. Thanks for the input!

Last This is something I would do I would buy all this stuff just for one part I've never sold anything on eBay though I can't believe all those chassis I had a clod buster once and I had so many extra parts I bought another chassis and made a complete vehicle with all the parts I had and I still had parts left over I sold the extra clodbuster I had built
@AddamsPlayground
3 ай бұрын
I have sold a few tings in the past on there. I actually rummaged up enough stuff at one point to actually by my black edition Clod! Some things I was never going to use and needed a home elsewhere. I will see what I end up with and will probably stick some combos up with the chassis, arms and rear housings all together instead of little bits a a time. It saves me from shipping so much out.

If you need some of these let me know. I am not going to use all of them for sure! In general I don't see to many parts lots like this so far on Buyee. I see a lot of on-road parts lots, wheels and tire lots and then the odd random one of the "this is all the stuff I cannot use and I am selling it all in one place to make it seem like a good deal but you only are going to use one or two things and the rest of it will be your problem now" lots!!!

Oh a Konghead, twist my arm more to get one.... My daughter painted hers Red & Black with Spaz mirror chrome (didn't work out so good).

The Kong Head should be a blast! I do like that two tone look! I will only do chrome on the show bodies for the shelf, this one will get knocked around some so any chrome paint for roll bars and such will just be silver paint! Next time I am on the site i will save a search for that and if they come up I will let you know. I am on a self imposed break as I need to regulate myself!

Color is so subjective. There is alot of chrome on that truck. So I'd be thinking about colors that go with chrome. Black metallic? (I know...another black rig) but probably a silver or a gun metal. I'd google freightliner and see real colors on real trucks to get some ideas.
@AddamsPlayground
3 ай бұрын
Yes, and I can go for a "real" look or a monster jam over the top kind of look seeing as the truck is a bit over the top. Normally I just go the simple route and stick with the box art but I am not attached to the box art on this one so the sky is the limit and that leads to too many choices. I get lost in the color wheel! LOL! I did think of black but looking at the instructions the back of it is a lot of black so then I would have to flip that to another color to counter the black front. I do like the Gunmetal/silver combo idea and another person suggested a deep red/burgundy which could look cool too especially with some pearl clear first. I still have no idea... the lime green may win as just the most outlandish color I could use LOL!!! Thanks for the suggestions!

I think I only need one readily available parts tree to make a complete build with these parts and the parts I already have one hand. So you are right that there is not enough there for a complete build but with the spares I already have I am 90-95% there. Obviously I have no issues buying parts...
