The car looks great colorwise. I bought myself a ca10 when corona started to have myself a nice lockdown project. I wanted it to be an old rusty farmtruck. Decided to go on faded orange with rust on multiple places. Did that by cutting some "rusted through" holes and making some dents in the door and fenders and roof. Painting everything in a rust color. make it wet, sprinkle it with seasalt. let it dry. spray with orange and let it dry. take away all grains of salt to reveal a lot of rust stains and then dirt wash amd weather it all even more. Even bought 3d printable files to print files that hides the electro motor and makes it into a real looking old rusty petrol engine complete with air intake filter and sparkplug wires and battery etc. ald weathered into an old rusty heap of broken dreams. Added a micro led light in the cabin and also under the hood to be able to see all the hard work that I did under there. routed all cables in the C channel framing and fastened them with thin metal wire. Headlights and turning lights are wired with very thin wire since the led's use ample power. glued those wires underneath the cabin and in wheel arches and all also covered them with paint. All electronics are hidden. Mostly under the seat in the cabin. and the speed controller sit's inside the gastank. On / off button is also hidden inside the seat and via a small hole I made underneath you can switch it on and off when you reach underneath the cabin with a finger. So with all doors open and the hood open you will not be able to see any cable or switch. Also the complete chassis and axle housings, inside of the cabin etc. are weathered. There are men sitting in the cabin ( walking death figures) and a dog in between. even a pack of lucky strike sigarettes on the dash. I am very pleased with the result. The only remaining thing to do is to make a more permanent load to keep in the back that will hide my battery bit also allows me to take it out more easy to charge it. The used esc is a type that can be set to a higher frequency to eliminate the irritating motor whining noise that irritates the crap out of me when driving very slowly. Back then I decided to buy this ca10 instead of the ca30 because ot was much cheaper and more ment as a shelf queen since I have dedicated crawlers that do a much better job offroading compared to this 6x6. Now I regret this choice a bit. both models went up in price a lot and I think the high bed looks better with the double rear wheels. But again. Love the colors on your ca30.
It's a pity you didn't enjoy the build but I can appreciate why. All those tiny fixings must have been a real pain and it is annoying when parts don't quite fit as they should. The end result though is superb! The bergundy paint goes well with the wood panels and overall, the detailing has turned out very well.
I have this same model in my "someday" pile. I was rather unimpressed with the plastic bed. I was having a hard time figuring just how i would do it. You sir just made up my mind. That "flat black" looks just fine. especially paired with the "coffee staining" of the real wood!
Absolutely incredible looking build dude! Beautifully detailed and painstaking for sure. I know the stress and feeling so well projects that are a bit off at every turn. Keep up the good work brother!
That looks amazing the finished truck is so realistic the coffee sacks are a nice touch. Sadly I would never drive it I'd be to scared I would scratch it. 👍👍
It looks really really nice! I think it's suitable for people that looking for difficult built and that can last for long time. Some people do enjoying the build process little by little.
I watched this last night & wanted to comment that I can so resonate with having to finish a build but not wanting to have any more to do with the stupid thing. Some just end up like that but sometimes you glimpse one that you felt that way about when you built it but turned out surprisingly well. I wish I could qualify for the draw, Phil. You're becoming an amazing builder and I'd be proud to take that rig to our local crawler space. I especially like the shiny metal on the cargo box - they look DAMN good!
I have the same 'wooden' bed except it'll be very heavily modified! First off, that plastic bed bottom is gone....and I'll be replacing it with real Basswood strips to replicate a real wooden bed. Next, the box sides will be cut down to half it's height and the reason for this is because this box will be installed into my SCX10-II all metal and portal axle'd 'UNIMOG' and the paint job is going to be completely heavily weathered with all metal parts with rust effects in an old aged orangey-yellow.....IT'S GONNA BE BEAUTIFUL
@@TomleyRC definitely! consider the price of stain now consider the price of some coffee and maybe put a little twist on it with some Koolaid added. black cherry? grape has a dark green-in base, lemon is obvious, etc. (let the wood drink it I sure ain't gonna!)
Coffee, tea, coca cola, anything can be used to stain. I used tea before, boil the water for 3 cups and put 6 bags in and let it steep. More bags = darker the tone. I spilled coke on an unfinished pine fire pit bench...oh crap...wait...poured it over the whole thing and wiped it down after a few minutes "that turned out all right" lol. You should try mustard or ketchup!!!
What a cool build! I love the color and stain you used too. As in all hobbies there are models that are not that fun to build. I am building a Dumas 1949 ChrisCraft runabout wooden boat. That is also a pain in the ass to work on. I have started it, then put it away for months, gotten back out and built more steps to it, then packed it away again. I bought it back in 2016. Im planning on finishing it by the summer of 2023. LOL. I know right?
Well I've got to say I enjoy a good solid cup of joe. At this time I had a cup of tea, enjoyed your vid. I've had a few builds that made me grow greyer by the minute. In the end, the build look great, someone will be blessed by it and 2023 is less then 2 hrs away. Thx for sharing, Happy New Year to all. 👍 😊
It looks awesome Phil! All the little challenges that pop up when building can be tedious but I like figuring out that stuff. The color suits the body style and wood color perfectly. I’m sure you’re glad that’s finally off the bench. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
You know this is actually a really good idea using the supporters money to make something only those people can win makes it pretty fair for all sides who join That makes it even better the rest is for charity you found yourself a goldmine for content
I can definitely relate. 👍I still have a half finished Orlandoo Miltary truck still needing to complete. One day I will either finished it or sell it on eBay 😂😂. Great job on your model 👍👏
Nice one Phil, looks really nice. Weathered the hell out of mine and seeing mint ones like this makes me want another. The build, yes, has a few issues but the end result justifies the struggle i reckon. I'd suggest whoever wins this beauty strengthens the fuel tank brackets - a mate made me some from aluminium - as they snap pretty quick. A
Hola mi Amigo como estas , espero que hayas pasado una excelente navidad , este camion es espectacular sobre todo la carroceria de madera , muchos detales que lo hacer ver realmente hermoso , saludos y felicidades gracias por compartir feliz dia , saludos desde Panama la perla del caribe
nice one, and I just happen to have a Betty Crocker espresso machine. it looks great and it'd be so easy to hide the motor with a mock V8 over. my guess by looking, its near an actual 1/14 scale, I like it!
What a laborious build, but you certainly made a silk purse from the crud you had to start with! A great cause and you should be proud of what you achieved. Looks fabulous :)
I wonder if they make other truck models based on that chassis , I can think of several 6x6 military trucks I d like to see a kit like this for , like the CCKW
Looks really great, they are fun to run, and thats why it´s worth all the fiddly things on these trucks from KingKong. Im building a Zil 130 4x2 right now and probably 1/3 of the screws are missing and some holes dont line up, some holes are only drilled on one side and a lots of other things, soo i just throw away the build manual and freestyling it.
If you're going to do any amount of painting, you should make yourself up a little paint booth. Get yourself an exhaust fan, inline ones work or a small box fan and a furnace filter if you can't vent outside. If you have a bathroom in that unit you can hook in flexible duct to that. If you can't, the box fan with a furnace filter in front does amazingly well. Get one of your amazon boxes (bigger) put the furnace filter and box fan in the back or bottom is better. When the overspray is still wet and in the air, it'll stick to the furnace filter. If you want to do something nicey nice, go to your local appliance store and see if they have a fridge or stove box. Snag the cardboard from that, it's usually quite thick and strong. My neighbour 2 doors down is a snap on dealer and he gave me a box they ship their tool boxes in. It's double walled and heavy duty and it's bloody stiffer than plywood.
Yes, I have a plan to make a vent pipe in my studio that exits through the roof into the open space above. It means the studio will stay free if fumes when I’m painting or soldering
I thought you were getting coffee ready to drink as you sit down & dig in. 😂. That RC came out amazing. I love how the hood opens old school style FMS take note.
This is brilliant Phil! And, no double entendre intended, but we were all looking forward to watching you mess about with your wood. . Dammit!Your wood looks good! (that's what she said)
congrats to the winner! yes, the build might have been a P.I.T.A. (short for pain in the ass), but it turned out very nice! cheers Phil and take care this holiday season with your family. see you in the next one!
Great choice of colour, really sets off that stunning bed!
Yes, looks good
I love how it sounds. It's honestly so fitting for the looks as the sound is a bit deeper and more aggressive.
Yes

The decals and the sacks of coffee was a nice touch.
Thanks Ash
For such a painful build, you did an amazing job! You put a lot of thought, care and effort into this project! 👍👍
Thanks mate
it does look a very tedious build, but looks so good too!
For being a pain, missing bits, miss fitting parts, it sure looks fantastic. You did a great job. 👏👏👏
Thanks dude. It certainly turned out okay
It's builds like this that make me really grateful for RTR's.
It's good to see it finally finished and it looks beautiful Phil 👊
Funny ain't it, builds like this is exactly why I hate RTR's. I love spending hours tinkering to get a RC working. Each their own!
Some people love building some just wanna plug a battery in a go. I like building when there’s no deadlines or expectations 😅
I drank real coffee while I watched this video. Great build.
I do have a coffee and cheesecake here.
@@Nordlicht05 Dann guten Hunger😁
Good work 👌
Coffee, cookies, kitty.
Yup, perfect way to enjoy watching an awesome truck build
Same here

Looks fantastic Phil,I'm glad that you managed to stick with it, it's turned out to be a stunning rig.
Yes, got there in the end 👌
I'm happy to see it's done. Sorry it was a pain. You're great, Merry Christmas.
I’m happy it’s done as well lol
as much as I wish I could contribute.. Im in a rough spot right now but love the build.. learned a bunch.. hope who ever wins it can appreciate it!!
Absolutely incredible looking build dude! Beautifully detailed and painstaking for sure. I know the stress and feeling so well projects that are a bit off at every turn. Keep up the good work brother!
Cheers dude. Appreciate it 👌
Beautiful Truck. Thanks for keeping it real with the struggle part.
Thanks Brad. I like to give me experiences good and bad
Looks really good, well done for completing it with all the little problems 👍🏻
Thanks mate
I've watched a few of your videos now and I totally dig your taste in music . I like how well rounded and random it is
For a coffee truck the colors are spot on. Job well done. Like button energized algorithms brewing.
Cheers dude 🤘
That looks amazing the finished truck is so realistic the coffee sacks are a nice touch. Sadly I would never drive it I'd be to scared I would scratch it. 👍👍
Well done for keep plugging away at it! The finished product looks great!
Yes, got there in the end!
For plastic scale painting I recommend using the Tamiya TS paint it require no primer and looks very good
I really enjoyed building mine and had hardly any problems with it
It looks really really nice! I think it's suitable for people that looking for difficult built and that can last for long time. Some people do enjoying the build process little by little.
Yes, I expect if you had no deadlines or pressure on you to finish it then things would be better. Hoping the next build is more enjoyable

Thanks Al. It was just one of them builds… hopefully the Boom Racing that I have awaiting some attention will be less troublesome!

I know It was a lot of work but mate that thing came out amazing at the end, cheers mate and congrats to the lucky winner!!!
Thank you… appreciate it 👌
Awesome looking build to watch whilst I have my coffee & relax after work 👍
😎🤘
I've used that same Vauxhall red on a truck build.
It's a cool looking old truck. It looks amazing.
I've used coffee to stain floorboards I have replaced in Victorian properties, works well 👍Looks excellent with all the details you added.
Certainly has a nice colour to it
@@TomleyRC definitely! consider the price of stain now consider the price of some coffee and maybe put a little twist on it with some Koolaid added.
black cherry? grape has a dark green-in base, lemon is obvious, etc.
(let the wood drink it I sure ain't gonna!)
Great looking truck. The winner is going to be so happy with it.
Cheers dude
absolutely beautiful 😍
I always look into projects like this but I am reluctant when I see how much goes into it haha
I think if you have no time limits or pressure on you to complete it then it would be much more enjoyable
I had forgotten about this build. Turned out really well despite the problems you had with the build.
Cheers dude
It looks great! Really detailed.
This truck is one of the best iv seen if not the best.
Bellissimo ! Complimenti ! Assolutamente un gran lavoro con dei fantastici dettagli . Grande Tomley
Congratulations on finishing the build! All the best
Thanks
it turned out very smart well done on it
Yes, it to bad in the end. Cheers mate
Came out brilliant, see hard work pays off .
So close to getting my own crawler , but can't decide what to get .
Keep up the great work Phil .
Looks good in those colours.
Cheers Paul
I've used coffee to dye things but never thought about using it for wood. You got a nice oak looking stain out of that. Pretty awesome. 👍
Yes, looks a decent colour
Coffee, tea, coca cola, anything can be used to stain. I used tea before, boil the water for 3 cups and put 6 bags in and let it steep. More bags = darker the tone.
I spilled coke on an unfinished pine fire pit bench...oh crap...wait...poured it over the whole thing and wiped it down after a few minutes "that turned out all right" lol.

Awesome build. I find that all the RC projects save for regular kits are filled with issues to be sorted. Cheers!
Yes, I don’t mind if there are a few little things to sort… this just seemed like everything had to be modded!
What a cool build! I love the color and stain you used too. As in all hobbies there are models that are not that fun to build. I am building a Dumas 1949 ChrisCraft runabout wooden boat.

Thanks dude. Yeah it’s a big relief now it’s done. Onto the Tamiya 934 build now 👌
Natural dye takes many applications to get a desired effect, when it's not concentrated.
I think it looks nice.
Great job. You should be proud of this. Well done.
You know this is actually a really good idea using the supporters money to make something only those people can win makes it pretty fair for all sides who join

Very Very impressive build,well done sir.
Thank you
Used to have the 4X4 mud truck and it was a very hard truck to build as well. But I love a challenge.
Yeah, certainly turned out okay in the end
tough builds like this are quite frustrating, making certain brands unbuildable in the future because of this. love the scale coffee bags in the bed!
nice one, and I just happen to have a Betty Crocker espresso machine.
it looks great and it'd be so easy to hide the motor with a mock V8 over.
my guess by looking, its near an actual 1/14 scale, I like it!
What an absolutely beautiful truck , it looks awesome 👏🏻 well done mate 👍🏻
Cheers Dean
That's a good looking truck. Great job Phil and thanks for sharing. John
Fantastic build and oh what a waste of coffee 🤣 good luck to the winner 👍
It was cheap ‘instant’ coffee 😅
That came out sweet. Serious trophy.
Thanks for the entertainment. Hope you and yours are warm and happy. Be well and have fun 😊
Thanks Brian. You too
What a good job remember keep smiling it’s only a hobby not a job 😊
I love seeing all these contests and give always,,..to bad I’ve never seen how to enter any of them.
What a laborious build, but you certainly made a silk purse from the crud you had to start with! A great cause and you should be proud of what you achieved. Looks fabulous :)
Thanks Stuart… but yeah, never again!
@@TomleyRC Thanks to you, I won't be trying it either ;) You'll be eligible for a sainthood if you ever attempted another build like that.
I wonder if they make other truck models based on that chassis , I can think of several 6x6 military trucks I d like to see a kit like this for , like the CCKW
excellent job beautiful build

Turned out really nice!

Turned out really nice Mr. Tomley! Keep up the good work sir!
That's awesome.
Thanks!
Keep it !! You did a amazing job on this project! I’ll ever see it again 😢 Happy new year
Thank you

I sent enough for a cheap cup “O” Joe. Great scale build. I hope you do another model in the future. Merry Christmas
Nice to see it finished, so much detail, sorry it was a pain to build.
So what next a "Coffee Café Racer" RC motorbike build ?
Super cool build
Came out beautiful, regardless the stress you went through 🤔. I really like it 👍
That’s Sick!!!!!
I thought you were getting coffee ready to drink as you sit down & dig in. 😂. That RC came out amazing. I love how the hood opens old school style FMS take note.

I'm guessing that bed took days!!! Good work as always sir!!
It certainly took some time!
You did amazing, it looks really great. Your effort and documentation is very appreciated ;-) Thanks

It looks beautiful and sounds great Phil!
