for a longer deck trailer, you can get aluminum angle stock at lowe's etc and a piece of flat stock (id have to measure the dimensions) and just by cutting behind the landing gear, you can stretch it out to a 53' er. use those bulk head pieces as extra bracing underneath and its sturdy. that piece of flat stock goes down the middle of the trailer and then you use the kit's deck wood on both sides and it fits.
Great looking rig dude, absolutely fantastic! I didn't even know they did RTR and whoever built it did a beautiful job on the build, box art perfect 😀 Seems a great way to start 2021, Happy New Year!
Beautiful Masterworks truck! A guy somewhat local to me has a MW grand hauler for sale but I still have a kit in a box to put together lol! I do have a MW highlift. It's not pristine as the previous owner drove it lots. Has that same radio that I also do not trust but I my 6ch 2.4 radio wont work with it even though it works with my globe with the mfc... weird voodoo lol.
Good to know, ya they have to be programmed to the mfc. Hobby concepts sells them with thorough instructions. Programming and electrical not really my wheelhouse, but i'll figure it out. Ya those high lifts and awesome trucks too. I didn't want anything used or second hand because lots of guys butcher these truck. Thanks for the comment friend. Btw which transmitter is it that you have, the one that works with your mfc and globe liner?
I've seen some built and ready Rigs going for over $1000 US!! 😮 (OR $1800 Canadian - $27,400 Australian!!! 😳😂😆🤣) kidding. Experience the kit...... We're a friendly community, so you'll get more help than you could ask for if you need any. Plus... you'll develop the understanding and skill to fix it yourself, should anything break.
I've never bought a RTR... Been in the Hobby since I was 17 - I'm now 57!! (Old Fart!) HOWEVER, if I had the chance - AND the money, I'd get THAT. I've got an unbuilt Globe Liner, waiting for 2 other Trucks to be finished. There's just something cool about that! 27MHz and NiCd!!!!! 😲 I'd keep them for collector's value... But you're right, I would definitely go 2.4 GHz.
I'm gonna get rid of the stock electronics here shortly. They're all brand new authentic Tamiya. Let me know if you're interested, probably won't be asking much. I'm sure theres some nostalgic collector out there that wants this stuff lol
@TheMUSICMAN197 You're only 5 years ahead of me.... SOME of us go overboard with these. Not me... I've "only" got 31 RCs. 😉 My 3 Semi Trucks have costed over $11,000! So far!!! You don't need to go that insane, if you don't want to. I look at it this way. Yes, it's expensive. More recently due to out of control inflation... prices WILL come back down. But it's also healthy! Us Old Farts aren't getting any younger. Building them from a kit, works your mind and hands. Taking them out to run them, is aerobic exercise. That can't be bad?
Excellent choice, I really like this model of truck, it is also the first time that I see it in rtr, good it is necessary to change the radio, because in 27mhz it is not good, it reminds me of when I was child 😄 Really he is magnificent, and you are right with the longer trailer it will be even better. Can't wait to see what you'll add to this super truck 😍
@@westernsharpie I have the Tamiya MAN TGX french blue edition with MFC03 fitted & the reefer trailer fitted with motorized support legs. I have also got the Tamiya scania silver edition r470 fitted with LESU V8 sound module & bluetooth lights fitted. Both trucks have just been fitted with lesu metal wheels which will be on my channel soon
@@douglasbabyy2318 Yes it's a good sized project, especially with all the electronics, lighting sound etc. You should be able to find one for sale on a facebook group page. They might not be brand new, but lots of people selling their trucks fully assembled, ready to go. Good luck
It was around $1700, because this one was a rare, expert built rtr it was little more expensive. I'll have to look into that transmitter, I have ordered a flysky i6. They seem to be the ones everyone is using with these trucks because of the mfc unit.
@@westernsharpieNo my friend Peterbilt haves a single grill, freightliner is single grill and 4 headlights and western star haves 4 headlights. Do not look like those it is an international from the 80s sorry but that is what it is
@@carloshnunez Right, ya lots of guys change the grills and headlights on these trucks. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with it. They turn them into Peterbilts, KW, Freighliner etc, but ya I know what you're saying, it's already set up for looking like an International.
@@tomasdesiderio6234 Fully assembled you might need to order straight from Japan if you want it factory new. You can also get an experienced builder to build it for you from the kit.
Awesome I subscribed to your channel awesome video and truck and trailer keep posting video's if everyone subscribe to the bad and good most of us would get better at the hobby. Like old old folks like me I watch you professionals to get where I'm at with my 8 videos. It's hard when folks don't help others out by subscribeing or thumbs up. I see folks asking but don't return the same love to others wow we all were not good when we started o well I never not subscribe to any one video bad or good I subscribe that's me love your build and keep building and Posting I will keep watching and helping your channel build a very very old man said that
built this truck 21 years ago! took me 10 hrs to built nice truck mine looks exactly like your! still runs great!
Cool! I got this as an rtr straight from Japan. Wow yours has some years and miles under her belt. Thanks for sharing my friend 👌

Good to know, thanks for the feedback. I'd eventually like a 53'
Now that's a truck!!!
Sure is nice! Thanks!

Thanks Ted! You see they can't mock you from the to do pile when they've already been done.
@@westernsharpie 🤣 Thats cheating though 😂
i just got this truck and i absolutely love it
I know they sure are beautiful, very nostalgic!
At the age of 65 I just brought one myself I'm enjoying it

great truck! absolutely love this RTR perfectly built truck. Would you share where we can buy RTR truck like this?
Thanks! I was lucky enough to find it on market place. So not sure where one would be able to find another
How much would one coast?
Tamiya has the price for kit. Not sure what an rtr version would go for now if they even exist.

I know of one... He STILL runs 75MHz and NiMH!! If any of his NiCd Batteries still worked, he'd use them! 😜😋
I'll ask.
Now I don't feel silly at 65 playing with a Radio controlled truck All I can say is Just enjoy it😅

@@westernsharpie Thanks for the reply. I want to buy one too, but it seems to be very difficult to assemble. Haha

How mutch cost you this RTR TRUCK? Also I want to inform you that multiplex have one transmitter special for TAMIYA TRUCKS
It was around $1700, because this one was a rare, expert built rtr it was little more expensive. I'll have to look into that transmitter, I have ordered a flysky i6. They seem to be the ones everyone is using with these trucks because of the mfc unit.

Nice truck
Thanks Dennis. I sure love the look of the cab overs!
I'm loving that truck! I can relate to your excitement! I'm needing one of these and the rc4wd dozer for my channel! Here's a Sub for that! 👍
Thanks Ricky, ya these are pretty addictive, careful with the construction stuff, those rc's will put you in the poorhouse quick lol.
Very nice truck only needs the international emblems
Carlos, it could also be peterbilt or freightliner or westernstar. I'm guess you like internationals? Thanks buddy
@@westernsharpieNo my friend Peterbilt haves a single grill, freightliner is single grill and 4 headlights and western star haves 4 headlights. Do not look like those it is an international from the 80s sorry but that is what it is
@@carloshnunez Right, ya lots of guys change the grills and headlights on these trucks. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with it. They turn them into Peterbilts, KW, Freighliner etc, but ya I know what you're saying, it's already set up for looking like an International.
@@westernsharpie Yes my friend but the good thing is you have choices and is a very nice truck anyway
where did you buy from already built.how much
Bought it from a private seller from a facebook group
@@westernsharpie how much to buy do you have contact info does he have more
