Further Description/Back Story After years of different kits, I decided it was time to do a hardbody build and figured I should go all out. This VS410 was a long work in progress of me contemplating different parts and my buddies telling me that I needed a Pro. There were multiple times I ordered new parts to tryout and decided to go a different route. Painting is my least favorite part of the build process, so ventually, after messing up the paint job, it was an easy decision to go for the “patina” look. Needless to say, I am so happy with the way it came out. Im a big fan of smaller tires and the scale driving style. The hardbody and paint give it a look to help it stand out and the gold wheels make it pop. This truck performs exactly like I hoped it would and I’m so glad to finally have it done. At least for now.
