MAN TGX 26.540 XLX 6×4 – 1:14 scale R/C prime mover from Tamiya

This Tamiya MAN TGX 26.540 6×4 XLX 1:14 scale R/C truck is an upcoming project thanks to a wonderful friend of mine in Hawaii. He has built the 18.540 version (4×2 that he plans to convert to a 6×2 later) and this was surplus to his needs so he’s kindly offered it to me – I have dutifully accepted his offer and will be receiving it in a couple of weeks! I have a little bit of planning to do beforehand – I need to do a photo shoot of the 1:1 MAN F2000 26.506 which I plan on using to base my build of this around (as a tow truck registered prime mover) – I will also be videoing the build at various points during my time building it. Stay tuned to this blog for more as the build progresses and to see the finished product…
