a start would be to toss all those parts on the chassis then build whatever make of pickmeup truck you like, slap a body on it and beat the shit out of it!!!!

Friendly advice...If you don't have a single idea on what you're going to build, it's not going to be a very successful build. A custom scale build takes a lot of vision and engineering...not to mention effort. We're all working on our own rigs trying to make them work and having our own troubles. My best advice is take your parts, start a build with what makes you happy and post up with the results. Members aren't going to build it for you, nor are they going spend time helping you decide the first decision of a thousand to come along the build. If you're low on time or money, just cruise the build threads and enjoy them and get ideas...it's free!

I wasnt looking for someone to build my rig(perfectly capable on my own) and i have built multiple crawlers and know the time and energy that it takes to build. I was trying to do a fun build thread to change up my building pattern. I have tons of ideas and lots of thoughts on where this will go. so i am sorry if anyone disagrees with this thread. Just trying to switch it up a bit
final thought... GOOD DAY!

They pretty much look just like Disco 1's...few minor dimensional and styling changes (door handles etc) but to the uninitiated they look the same.
