| *** Hilux Honcho Hybrid *** Wild Snapper's Hilux Honcho Hybrid- Well it's not close to done, but I had to throw up some pics up for you guys to see. I am very excited about this build and have been thinking about doing it since the Axial honcho kit was released. I got alot more detailing to do and a nice set of MSD 1.9 Dyce Spiders are in the mail. I just want to start this build thread by thanking DH Fab for making the front stinger bumper. This guy is great to do business with and does amazingly clean work. All of his stuff is top notch and very high quality. Let me know what you guys think as this is my very first scale build. |

Thanks for the encouragement guys, like I said this is my first scale build so your reactions and feedback mean alot. Use the pics for whatever, once I get a little more work done I will take the truck out and get some real pics of the truck in action. Last edited by Wild Snapper; 01-11-2010 at 07:49 AM. |

| Update... Finally got those MSD Dyce Poison Spyders wheels #26 and put them on. These are by far the easiest wheels I've used. Next project will be building the interior. |

| Update- Took the new trail rig out to the ocean today to drive a nice ridge. The truck performed really well and was refreshing to drive after using a comp crawler for so long. Though you guys might enjoy some picks. |
