Post memory rebuild!!

To explain the title I have had my grandfather recently pass away and the other side of the family got the jeep.

but, no prob I decided Im just going to build a 1/10 scale version of the jeep!

So in memory of Grandpa
I initiate project: memory lane!













(prostate cancer ribbon)
this build will include
1. tamiya wrangler body converted to TJ
http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/tam9335171.htm

2. RC4WD trail finder
http://store.rc4wd.com/products/Trai...dition%29.html

3. 540 45T motor
http://store.rc4wd.com/products/540-...Motor-45T.html

4. mud thrashers 1.55
http://store.rc4wd.com/products/Mud-...ale-Tires.html

5. 1.55 void bead locks ( for now)
http://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/rc4z-w0045.htm

6. and lots o' custom crap (interior, opening and removable doors, removable soft top, spare, and lots more)

this will be a slow build starting with the body and building down.
(i have very little funds so bare with me.)

I'm sorry for your loss of both grandpa, and Jeep. Should be a cool way to remember him

Very nice project and a thoughtful one too. The 1.1 Jeep looks very cool. Nice choice to replicate it!!
