Well done as always. This might be my next truck build after I finish the FH16 wrecker. Still a ways to go on that one.

[@michaelcopse2013]

Another great video Bob the painting looks amazing...

[@DrDiff952]

Glad you are using SFR-1. Just ordered aluminum plate for my globe liner

[@RcNeil]

I literally was wondering if bob has build his Volvo as I really want to get one myself my first single rear axle 🎉

[@lars-uweschubert898]

🤩 great job 👏👍💪🚚

[@sebastianRC-Mania]

one of my favorite mediums ❤😊

[@AnthonyWiddowson]

Think I would have attached the axle to the springs, then mount the rear springs on the chassis for ease of access.🤔 Amazing build of this truck.

[@scottvanbuskirk3653]

That's what I do is a silver or gold base coat, I use dupli color automotive paint, a lot of GM colors or Ford colors

[@joselitominiaturasdeonibus]

Good Bob,🤣🤣🤣👍

[@paulclifford4089]

Hi there are you going to finish the globe liner you started months ago I would love to see you finish it

[@HobbyconceptsLLC]

Yes, video coming soon!

[@marcopaganoni2893]

everyone, is it my impression or has Tamiya been coming out with new truck kits in recent years but are the cabines used always the same? what do you say?

[@jamesfisk2758]

Hi Bob, enjoying the build a always. I have been trying to find lights like you have inside your paint booth. Did you add the light or did it come with the booth. If you added them can I ask where you got it?

[@HobbyconceptsLLC]

Mine came with the lights. They work quite well. Are like LED strips around the edge.

[@nsvaluto48328]

I forgot what motor do you replace the stock motor with? Thanks Bob

[@HobbyconceptsLLC]

Usually 55 turns.

[@pisflap1]

Hi Bob, could I ask using the beier system do you put resistors on each led?

[@HobbyconceptsLLC]

You cab put the resistor anywhere in line with the LED. The ones I sell have it right next to the LED but it can bae anywhere in the wiring depending on if you have fit issues. I normally use 680 ohm LED's.

[@frkop]

when come next part?

[@HobbyconceptsLLC]

In a week.

[@alanmaynard7842]

Hi Bob. Could you tell me the correct email to get you on. I have tried to email you, but think I may be using the wrong address. Alan

Too bad it isn’t a 6x4 Volvo.

[@RcNeil]

these are popular here in UK I this same exact one on the motorway single rear axle fh16 in the blue with silver decals and it looks stunning

[@DPWian]

@@RcNeil yea but still would be cool seeing two rear axles like a 6x2/2 with a pusher/tag axle.

[@RcNeil]

@@DPWian I think licensing is the issue am dying for them to come out with a new US truck ages now so I companies don’t want to give them license for them to do a model. Scania and Mercedes are big in the rc industry here in uk hence is easy for them to get licenses form these companies hence why we have so many of these models

[@DPWian]

@@RcNeil yeah that is unfortunate and some new US trucks would be cool.

[@robhighway8366]

Buy a 6x4 truck and a separate Volvo fh16 cabine or buy 2 kits and swap the cabines
