| New to me brute!
I picked this up in a trade from CrawlinClodKiller i will let him take the credit for the amazing styren work!...All i have done to the body was finished up some of the small low spots and some some small line finishing. As of now she is sitting on an scx chassis,axles running a teking rs/17.5 combo with 1.9 claws holding her up...I laid the piant early this am dont think its too bad..Also modified the dingo flares for the front...

Congrats on getting that rig! I saw it in person and wished I had the money to buy it. The styrene work is really killer. Did you get all his other crawler parts too, or just this rig? I know he said he was getting out of crawling. The paint looks great. So are you from Nebraska or? |

I used the original mounting holes and drilled the holes to match and used the plastic mounts that they came with. I will get a pic for ya. Thnx for the comments guy.

I like what you have done with my old baby. I was gonna spray bedliner in the bed and make a spare tire carrier that acted as a mount for the bed as well. Can't wait to see what you do with this thing. I am glad you are enjoying it and that it is finally going somwhere. I am still into crawling, just need to money to get all that I need to compete again. |

Looks amazing! I agree that it is nice to see a clean paint job that isn't plain solid color. Not too crazy, but different too. Good work. I have a beat up NB JK body that I want to make into a Jeep FC. Maybe once I get more styrene experience... |

I have a different jeep body that I may just go crazy with. Everyone seemed to like this one so much.
