Again, great attention to detail. You really are a smart dude. Thanks so much for sharing. Your build are among my favorites to see take shape. Another amazing build.
I LOVED this build when I originally saw it. I LOVE it even more now that I've seen the custom built side dump trailer that JMI built to match this truck. I love the project even more now that I've found out the truck & trailer were built for a customer in the Pacific Northwest! I'm optimistic that one day I might be able to get video of the completed builds married together & working!
Wow, what a beautiful truck Bob. You knocked it out of the park...great combination of color, rims, and assembly techniques. I love the rear decking and painted tanks.
@@HobbyconceptsLLC No I mean when I go to sleep I put on your video because it just helps me relax I’ve been building Tamia stuff since the early 80s they just have a great format and they have a great manual they are the number one leader in any kit whether it’s a plastic model or an RC they’re just the best
I’m going to take a guess that your retired. And what a awesome hobby to do in retirement. I am a RC junky but my time mainly allows me for RTR RC’s. I hope I will be able to do this when I retire. And your craftsmanship is top notch, a great deal of detail goes in every project. Loved it 👍🏻
This particular series got me excited to build another truck... I have sold off all my Scania and Man's and trailers, but I have not made an American style rig... Thanks for the great price on your website sir, can wait for it to arrive.
Beautiful build, those servos I bought from you are working great with my hauler build. Thank you so much for your videos they are loads of helpful information.
Hi Bob, hope your in good health!! It's been quite awhile since I've seen you!! I know you had some health problems in the past, and I sincerely hope that is all behind you now!! I think I speak for all of your subscribers, when I say, great to see you back, and hope we will see you more often!!! God bless, and thank you for sharing friend!!!
Bob.... That is absolutely Beautiful!!! 👋👋👋👋👋👍👍 I honestly didn't think I'd like the Coral Blue... but I'm absolutely a fan now. It's gorgeous!! I'm still a bit stalled on my Grand Hauler, but parts are trickling in from China - including a Set of Aluminum Wheels! They're more late 70's appropriate, and like yours, really make the Truck POP. I am a couple of weeks away from a BIG order from you. I'm really looking forward to it!! 😁
Excellent work and the blue lights are a nice touch! (a side note-OK disallows any blue lighting showing to the front. Blue lights are reserved for emergency vehicles) Still the video tuitional you produce are first class thanks for your tips and tricks!
Why you did a great job and it looks just like the real thing because of real thing was that Louisville truck show this past weekend and it was a beautiful truck and it was a Kenworth the only thing different between the truck the real truck that was at Louisville did the one that you built his tanks for Chrome and he didn't have the blue lights in the bumper he had the orange lights but your truck that you just built looks just like the real thing so you did a great job man this is Ken I'm in Florida
I have my bumper lights and air cleaner lights connected and soldered to an extra servo tab extension I had. Now, lol where do I connect that? To the Reciever aux channel or somewhere to the MFC-01?
Just wondering if your trucks are for sale. Or would you be interested in putting one more of these together the is the best looking truck that I have ever seen. I want to get a semi like that cuz that is his favorite color we had a fire a few months ago and lost everything he had for cars and trucks. His wish is to have a truck just like that one. But I just dont have the time to make one. Trying to clean up the house and working all the time.
First off sir thank you so much for makeing such great Educational videos. I have a question me and my son are starting off building smitruck R/C trucks and i was wondering when you paint the body of the truck do you wet sand and shoot clear coat.
Hi Bob, another great video series. Turned out beautiful! On the fuel tanks I know you used the chrome adhesive strip on the bands did you use the same on the fuel cap?
Very well done..bob...we thank you for spending your time in sharing what you have....sharing is giving! Btw where do u get those mini bulbs for the bumper and what is the specs if i buy them like what voltage..im not familiar with electronics..thanks again
Question bud. Is there a heavy haul model or sorts anywhere on the market? Like a tri axle truck jeeps lowbed booster the works 10 or 13 axle set up type deal
Not totally sure what you are asking about but look at this: hobbyconcepts.net/products/cross-bc8-mammoth-1-12-8x8-scale-off-road-military-truck-kit-flagship-version?_pos=3&_sid=09537221c&_ss=r
Hello you have a nice truck. I bought one last year. It didn't come with all the pieces. I went to a hobby store and he ordered some of the pieces. It's been over a year and he's never got them. I even bought another kit, expecting to find the missing parts I needed and that kit had missing parts. I even bought the grand Hauler. The sound kit didn't come with all the stickers for the wires. I don't know where to get them. I wish I'd never bought it in the first place.
I go through hundreds (and I really do mean hundreds) of Tamiya semi kits every year. I have never had a kit with a missing part, although it could probably happen, maybe. If you think you have a kit with a missing part contact Tamiya at tamiyausa.com
Hi Bob, that is a beautiful truck. I would have gone with a different color, but if you like that is what matters. After all it is YOUR truck! I wanted to join your facebook group but they have banned me for some unknown reason. Can I post a link here to my youtube channel showing my Grand Hauler?
Fantastic 👏 I love that colour… It’s like seafoam green
That's a sweet truck . That is something like I want . Stretched frame , fenders , visors . Low stance . I love that look . One of these days .
Do you have Instagram ? I follow on Facebook and on here .
I do not have Instagram
@@HobbyconceptsLLC I was just curious . I couldn't find you on there .

Oh that's my favorite blue color bob. Excellent grand hauler
Awesome paint job
Your videos are so relaxing it helps me go to sleep at night I love it thank you so much for this
Not exactly sure how to take this, but if you do fall asleep during my videos the commercials all run the whole length and I LOVE that idea!!

Awesome dang build bob
Wow Bob, my favorite truck yet! No wonder this is your personal rig! You should do a custom trailer to go with it.
Enjoyed watching it well done
Well worth the time
It was worth the wait.love the rig.

Hi,
You need some smoke generators on the exhaust stacks….Good job
New subscriber! I’m very interested in RC Construction and heavy haulers! Nice build. Nice truck!
Bob.... That is absolutely Beautiful!!! 👋👋👋👋👋👍👍
I honestly didn't think I'd like the Coral Blue... but I'm absolutely a fan now. It's gorgeous!!
I'm still a bit stalled on my Grand Hauler, but parts are trickling in from China - including a Set of Aluminum Wheels! They're more late 70's appropriate, and like yours, really make the Truck POP.
I am a couple of weeks away from a BIG order from you. I'm really looking forward to it!! 😁
I was not sure about the color either but it was duplicating a real truck. After I sprayed it I was convinced. Really a great color.
Back in the day I had a keep moving r.c Claude, Akins. Trailer ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nice 👍 looks great !!!
Nice work, nee door and hood decal, but good stuff 👍
Excellent work and the blue lights are a nice touch! (a side note-OK disallows any blue lighting showing to the front. Blue lights are reserved for emergency vehicles) Still the video tuitional you produce are first class thanks for your tips and tricks!
I do mention that in part 2.
Look amazing 🤩. I love it.
Why you did a great job and it looks just like the real thing because of real thing was that Louisville truck show this past weekend and it was a beautiful truck and it was a Kenworth the only thing different between the truck the real truck that was at Louisville did the one that you built his tanks for Chrome and he didn't have the blue lights in the bumper he had the orange lights but your truck that you just built looks just like the real thing so you did a great job man this is Ken I'm in Florida
Looks great!!!
Man I just ordered one, this one came out GORGEOUS. Wow. I also ordered the aluminum tanker for the rear. Just need to order the sound box. 👍🏼👍🏼
love the build also can i ask if you sold one how much would you sell it for
Can you please do a build series of the Tamiya 1/14 MAN TGX 26.540 6x4 XLX Gunmetal Semi Tractor Kit
Hi i have the transformer grill..and wondered if you have any ideas how to fit lights on it...
I wonder how you did mount the sun visor, since there isn't really a hole or something to clip it in?
I drill holes in the visor and use screws to put it on the cab.
Great videos Sir!!!!
Do you remember what micro switch you used to use for the bumper and air cleaner lights?
I used an electronic switch: hobbyconcepts.net/products/hobbyconcepts-electronic-switch?_pos=1&_sid=dfe16236f&_ss=r
@@HobbyconceptsLLC ok cool, soooo I live in Canada and your site doesn't to Canada..Is that right? or is there another way I can order from you?
how can i order this switch?
@@flightengr switches can be found on Bob’s website, or Amazon.
I have my bumper lights and air cleaner lights connected and soldered to an extra servo tab extension I had. Now, lol where do I connect that? To the Reciever aux channel or somewhere to the MFC-01?
You need an electronic switch if you want to operate them remotely.
Is it a manual 3 speed?
This truck is amazing! Is it for sale?
I do build trucks for sale. Check the tab for custom trucks tab Hobbyconcepts.net
Just wondering if your trucks are for sale. Or would you be interested in putting one more of these together the is the best looking truck that I have ever seen. I want to get a semi like that cuz that is his favorite color we had a fire a few months ago and lost everything he had for cars and trucks. His wish is to have a truck just like that one. But I just dont have the time to make one. Trying to clean up the house and working all the time.
I have one in stock right now here: hobbyconcepts.net/collections/custom-built-trucks/products/custom-grand-hauler-purple-2-mfc-03
I'm really interested in this. Does it come with any warranty?? Does it have light hook up for trailers. And how much could it pull or hall
what color is it? tamiya spray??
so cool!
How much would you charge for one like this? Seriously inquiring.
First off sir thank you so much for makeing such great Educational videos. I have a question me and my son are starting off building smitruck R/C trucks and i was wondering when you paint the body of the truck do you wet sand and shoot clear coat.
I do use Tamiya clear. I sometimes sand first depending on how good I shoot the paint :-)
what type of glue did you use when putting the lights in the air cleaners?
ShoeGoo is a favorite of mine.
The completer kit fit the grand hauler and do i have to do any adjustments or everything fits right in
Everything fits right in.
Hi Bob, another great video series. Turned out beautiful! On the fuel tanks I know you used the chrome adhesive strip on the bands did you use the same on the fuel cap?
The fuel cap is a separate part and comes chromed so I just left it chrome.
What do you use to cover hole over sleeper/
The Grand Hauler has a little chrome plug that fills it.
Very well done..bob...we thank you for spending your time in sharing what you have....sharing is giving!
Btw where do u get those mini bulbs for the bumper and what is the specs if i buy them like what voltage..im not familiar with electronics..thanks again
If you are in the U.S. hobbyconcepts.net/search?q=3mm%20led*&type=product
Great build mate, what brand are the wheels mate?
Another great build Bob! I just saw the t shirts on the website and I was bummed out that they are sold out! Can't wait to get one! Happy building 👍
They are not sold out. Just click the link in the description. Or here is a direct link: my-store-11318378.creator-spring.com/
@@HobbyconceptsLLC thank you!
Great job!!!! I am curious, have you ever tried the exhaust smoke mod that creates exhaust smoke effect?
I have a unit I want to try. Future video!
Si, si. Es para estar orgulloso del trabajo realizado. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 Enhorabuena.
Question bud. Is there a heavy haul model or sorts anywhere on the market? Like a tri axle truck jeeps lowbed booster the works 10 or 13 axle set up type deal

Great color & rig would like to drive one of these American rig's O semi got turned down at 56 to move to American live & work.
How come the hobby concepts online company server is down and unable to be found.
There as an outage at Network Solutions that affected us. Back now!
That's a lot of wiring. The color grew on me.
Great job! Who thumbed down this video?
what color it is?
Tamiya TS-41 Coral
Do you build these for sale?
Yes.
Maybe the plastic models arent so bad to deal with. Atleast theyre customizable.
Sweet
Parabéns pelo trabalho. 👊
Can you please do a build series of the tamiya RC MERCEDES-BENZ ACTROS
