I finally broke down and got a brazing setup. I am starting out making a rear bumper and side bars/front bumper to come later this week. I am also pondering doing some type of minimal exo-cage to protect “HotRodJoshs” up and coming paint job.
*Also, thanks to everyone that answered my questions about brazing!

looks great justin. With that nice paint an exo is in order huh. very cool rig. see you sunday.

Thanks! Kool, sunday it is. I love that its only a hour or so drive, not a 4 hours drive per the Lucia Falls comp."thumbsup"

i think this one is a little closer for but not by much. Im in olympia. It is almost 2hrs for me. Im getting it all ready to go. I just hope my new shocks will be here by saturday for the lil jeep. Are you going to comp with the yota? Looks like we both get to try our hands at judging. Even if you dont wheel it, I hope you bring the toyota, that is just beautiful.

Got some stuff done last night.....light bar, tire mount, front bumper and front body mount.

That thing looks awesome man!"thumbsup" i got another rig that im planning out right now! if you have those scx10 shocks still let me know!

where were those "poser" photos taken at looks like a great place to crawl.

that rig looks awsome and the paint job looks sweet but u need to get it out on the rocks and put some beauty marks on it.

The pics were at Lake Keechelus in Washington State. WARCRC hosted a comp rig comp there last weekend, and a scale comp the weekend before. Its a great place to crawl!"thumbsup"

Made some new sliders today. :party:

Sanded down my beater hilux body yota and painted it today. Whats everyone think of the orange?
http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...4/P8231734.jpg

Please don't put that roll/light bar thing back on. It absolutely kills it.

Why, so it looks like all the other Toyotas out there?

Put it back on man, I think that light bar/tire mount is awesome. Loved the BigBear paint scheme, that was rad. "thumbsup"

Sorry guys, I forgot to state that I have two hilux bodies!"thumbsup"

Well, the orange is going bye bye. And yes, the dremel fell on it.Just Fyi, this orange body is a basher body, I still have the big bear paint job body."thumbsup"
http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...nart24/cut.jpg

good thing you got rid of the orange!! cuz i have 2 orange yotas! hah matched my 1:1 yota. no i really like the look of the ornage with black hood.. half doors are nice as well, this rig always seems to be on jack stands! lol keep up the great work man"thumbsup"

Thanks bro!

I will be putting in racing seats/interior this week too! Time for more scale points!"thumbsup" BTW, I bought new paint yesturday, I am going with Tamiya Metalic light blue(it pretty close to my other big bear color).

What do you think, keep the black strip on the side&black hood like the orange paint job?

for sure!!!... like youve heard, make it stand out from the rest of the yotas on here! you plan on making a rack for this one as well??

mines driving now still needs work but tested the suspension. so we could have a G2G soon:?:
