|  Noob's 4Runner
Hey Guys - I've been involved with this hobby for 25+ years now and in that time I've seen some pretty insane stuff built on here ( and on other scale related websites as well) . The bar has been raised so high these days its rediculous. There are a handful of rigs out there that I've always told myself if they ever went up for sale, I'd try my best to own them. That was the case with this 4Runner. This beauty was built by Pardonmyn00b. He is one of the absolute best styrene guys out there - period. In fact I am so impressed with his work I personally own 2 other trucks he's custom built for me - they are absolute works of art. Anyways when I saw that Rich had this one up for grabs - it was a NO brainer. I contacted him and the deal was done. Here is his original build thread.... 4Runner build    And below is the REAL reason why I just HAD to have this truck..!!!   Its a damn near match to my 1:1 84'  Future plans include adding a few small, minor details and just enjoy wheeling this stellar rig.  |

Thanks Guys, can't really say I'm going to change much on this rig. I love it just the way it is..! Besides I already have 2 other yota's "N00b" built for me to change up and build the way I want to.    Last edited by 51WillysJeep; 07-29-2011 at 11:15 AM. |
