Default Dorkstar Beckworks Blazer!

Well, I don't normally buy trucks, but sometimes a rig presents itself, and well, I just fell in love with this one! Plus I seriously don't have the time to build anything else right now, what with the 12 projects on tap... Needless to say Beckworks does AMAZING work. Symetrical, and the body fits perfectly. Totally love it.

I Painted up a new body, built some TLT/Humvee wheels, added new, lower shocks, new tires, and a fuel cell and fire extinguisher. Lots of work left, but it's coming along!















Thanks for looking,
Ryan

Well Im sorry to hear Chip sold that but at least he sold it to someone that will use it like it should be used. Trust me when I say that thing is damn near indestructable if Chip couldnt break it I seriously doubt you will.

Well, I'm a very proud owner, so don't worry, it's in good hands! I havent even driven it yet, but I did get the Maxamp 4400 Saddle Lipo for it.

If he would have kept it long enough, he would have found a way.

It's maiden voyage will be video taped, and will involve DEEP mud and wheelspeed. ;)

I'm crazy for not selling it when it was bought for making it for the price of being sold....



Dude this rig is tight son. The wheel tire combo set the whole thing off. The Dorkstar stickers are what really make it though.

That's one of the best Blazers I've seen on here... actually the best. Beckworks does amazing work. All you need now is a matching spare.

Matching spare, front skid plate, and some other bits and pieces are in the works!

Thanks people!

Any pics of how you built the wheels? I am assuming that you used the Hummer centers and TLT wheels to get a better offset??? Any way they look sick!! Went down to Bastard's shop today to check the progress on my Blazer and can't wait to get it in my hands to build it.... Gonna be rockin' the Darkhorse painted and detailed body on mine, look for a build thread here soon.


See the body here vvv M.o.p.a.r ---k5
