Default Tomb Raider Jeep Rubicon -- Updated 1/1 --

Posted this elsewhere, but forgot about you guys. Just thought this would fit here.

Not going to throw alot mumbo jombo out here, just pics.

This is what I'm going for


How about a CC01 SA


Just a few build pics

















Please be advised -- THIS KIT IS 1:1...only used for reference.








More coming...

Nope, CR01's...had to "work" the inside a little and the CC01 housings but they fit nice and snug.

Thanks all for your comments. It's nice to be appreciated for the hard work and thought that I put into my builds, especially when I'm trying to maintain a job too. Still on going and I should be able to update in a couple days...you know...work.

arcane - I made that Skyjacker set from brazed brass and RC4WD parts.

rcscaler - Ya...I made the dash, steering wheel, and the floor levers. I have a Lara Croft driver for it when it's finished.

Um...j-bird, this is a TJ not a JK. These are the only other pics I have of the Skyjacker setup...didn't really think this would be such a hit.



...and this is my driver.


Thanks for looking.

Definitely my favorite. Really like the true to scale aspect.

Keep the pics coming and details on how you do your great work. Thanks.

It's the details like the Skyjacker lift kit that really help set it off. Not that the rest of it isn't great, which it is.
