Default my project jeep

I got a sweet deal on bananaclip's jeep ( thanks man!) and this is my build up of that jeep. I got it as a roller but not put together with mini losi axles. The axles were plenty beefy and came with extra's but i choose to use axial's axles. I love the look of full width under a jeep.



naked shots ( dont mind all the extra long screws and other crazy stuff lol its a mock up for now)










next is work on the body ( didnt have to do much , just sand and glaze , had to ca glue some back together)




couple body on shots







thats all i have for now lol dont flame to much still new , should have the steel side panels on soon!

I got a little more done today and got the body drilled for the sides and got the sides bent and painted with the first coat of black. Used a m1.6 drill bit and some bo'bo m1.6 screw and nuts ( will order better ones once i put the jeep back together for good).


side's as i got them




sides on the jeep




Still have more bolts to put in to hold it on but enough for mock up.

Bring the dash down a tad bit more, then she should look spot on. I am so happy the jeep went to someone with some drive!!!!!

Jeep looks very good, but flat glass, no good for crawling.

JK, really like the look.
