| Quick Double Cab Toyota Build
Gonna build me another Toyota I reckon. Started with an old school scaler I bought awhile back. I kinda wanted to build it up with those parts, but there was an RC4WD explosion in my mailbox. I put some of the new parts on to see how it looked. Then I dropped it on the floor and this happened. I brazed it back together, but it ended up being longer than before. I scrambled to build a new body to hide my mistake. And that's where I'm at after day 1. |

Damn Rich, like you need a reason to do more styrene work. What did you do, drop the frame on a spinning cutoff wheel? Twice?

| Nah, it's been done before. I don't want to get super crazy with this. I just want something fun to drive this time. Thanks. Not going to bob it, but I'm going to drop it. Thanks Quote:
Yeah, I can't be mad at myself. Shit happens. Fixed it up as good as new. | |
