Default Sam Fisher's New Ride: "The Wrai-Bicon"

Just finished my 1.9 Wraith/Rubicon (Wrai-Bicon for those who didn't catch that... ;) )

It's got the following:
1.9 SCX10 Axles
1.9 RC4WD Steel Wheels
1.9 IROK Tires
DMG Aluminum Billet Axle Truss
Level3 Chassis Servo Mount
HiTec HS-645MG
Wraith Chassis
Wraith Transmission
Wraith Interior
Dynamic Concepts Rubicon Body (Custom Painted)
Custom Links
Custom Drivelines
Losi Shocks
Sam Fisher (of course...)












The required articulation shots...








Don't tell my wife I had the dirty ones on the counter... Hahahaha! ;)




Next to the full size Wraith for comparison:





The whole stable:

Thanks guys. I still have a few things to finish up on it. I'm going to attempt to braze some sliders for the side like the ones I had on my 1:1 Wrangler.

I can't believe it, that is the best looking "Wraith" I have ever seen!

Awesome job of thinking outside the box!

Don't mention it!

And don't be surprised if I build a clone of it!

Hahaha! I really do respect some of the amazing builds on this site, and compliments coming from some of what I consider the best builders are humbling. Thanks again.

Yes, funny you mentioned that, because I agree with you 100% . It's a pretty respectable 12.5" wheelbase currently, but I will be installing new, shorter links up front to bring it to 12" when I have some more time and money, (and my wife won't kill me. Haha!)
