Finally got a Hilux body!!!

[Sasquatchbagger]

Haven't been back into RCs for sometime now, since my dad passed away this past summer. I finally decided to get the truck that first got me interested in this hobby-the Hilux.
15 yrs ago I was interested in the Nikko Malibu truck which I think was a Hilux. After that 15 yr "hiatus", the Tamiya Hilux got me!
My first truck since then was a Wheely king which I converted to more of a scaler with a custom hand made chassis. Been using 2.2s but I have grown more toward using 1.9s...depending on terrain.

I took off the Pro-line lexan body and mocked the hilux onto the chassis for a couple of shots. Still need to shorten the wheelbase to 11.5" to fit the Yota body nicely.

I am still gathering the parts to complete the body and still deciding on the paint scheme. For those who did the same, using just the Hilux body, did you buy the original Tamiya hilux screw bag or just used what ever screw that would work?

I still need parts from:
Tamiya K Parts Roll Bar 58397
Tamiya M Parts License Plates 58397
Tamiya D Parts Mirrors 58397
Tamiya N Parts Bumpers 58397
Tamiya P Parts Clear Lenses 58397
