Starting my New General Lee Revo
This is being done on a stock Revo truck body. I stuck the window stickers on the inside to use as window masks and to do the window outlines, I'll post some pics when I get my digi-cam back tomorrow. Anyways I was thinking should I make the bed area black, carbon fiber or orange with the rest of the body. I'm thinking orange or black to keep the whole thing only those 2 colors? Any thoughts?[sm=confused.gif]

RE: Starting my New General Lee Revo
I totally screwed up not 1 but 2 of the decals I bought, of course I only got 2. Blows so much, I already masked and outlined the windows, stuck on the numbers and screwed the flags. I had to make a cutout for the antenna and forgetting they stick on the inside and various distractions going on I messed up 2. Then all I had to do was spray the orange.

RE: Starting my New General Lee Revo
This is such a simple job to do, all you need is 1 color, the decals and I would recommend a backer to protect from scraping from the inside. The color is pactra competition orange in a rattlecan, and I got the decals from a guy I hooked up with here on the forums named [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/community/profile.cfm?memid=183073]Tabland[/link], he said it was ok to PM him, he also made me some Oakland Raider decals. Be sure to let him know that allen0622 sent you so I can get a good deal the next time I need something hehehe

Prowd owner of the first three seasons of the original and REAL Dukes of Hazzard, although I'm sure going to see the new one on the 7th. *sigh* they got everyone right except for Boss Hogg...oh well, we'll live.
Nice body Allen.....does it freeze in the middle of a jump for a commercial break just to have Wayland tell you what just happened 2 seconds ago? lol
Phew it's getting late, I better go to bead before I keep reading threads like this.

RE: Starting my New General Lee Revo
Allen have you finished the oakland raiders body yet? I really want to see what the finished product looks like. By the way the General Lee Revo turned out great. Holler at me if you need anything else.
