| Samurai Truggy
Next little project. During looking around for some inspiration ideas I've come across some Samurai truggies and knew I had to build one. This has been today's work. Most of it was getting things set up. Axial SCX-10 based of course. 11" WB, etc, etc, etc.... |

Yes, yes, I know I have a problem. Tube work it done. I just need to mount a nuts for panels and such but it's close. I'm thinking primer gray for the color with black tube work. |

Samurai? It looks more like a 70 series land cruiser. Looks good nonetheless.

Well I pulled a total bonehead move and realized after building everything that it's not legal for the UTRCRC Trail class which us what I was intending to run it in I'm not really sure what I'm going to do but I'll finish her up one way or another. Maybe I'll lengthen the wb a bit and throw some big 1.9" Boggers on it and let my son run it in Modified. Paint is drying now on the body. I'll post a picture later. |

Well I think it looks awesome! Now I just have to figure out it I'm going to run it or not. I still can't believe I spaced the bumper width rule |
