Default 1.9 Hilux hybrid truggy with the aid of Mr. Boyer

I just got this back from John, amazing work as always
There is still a LOT of finishing touches to get this truck to where I want it, but it's off to a good start.

K2-5 (I think) Chassis powder coated black
TLT axles
Axial tranny
Touring car shocks
Boyer tube work w/ inner cage
Rock stompers

Future plans are....
Really nice set of 5 beadlocks
Flat irons
Finish interior/ finish flat bed.
Lots of scale goodies
Working winch maybe scale offroads.

This will most likely progress very slowly until I am done finishing the basement! I just hope I don't have to sell it for building materials

Pictures really aren't doing the truck any justice either

If anybody has any suggestions on finishing the flat bed, I'm all ears! I also Have to figure out what to do with the back of the cab.

A little styrene bed work would be pretty easy. You could use some styrene diamond plating to finish it off as well

Reign RC makes a Hilux Back and window for that body and may work well

I'd like to run a full interior. Hopefully my skills develop so I can make it look half way decent Or you could just come down and do it for me
