|  MY 3 Bowties
Im sure I will have more at some point. I still need a Burb to round them out, but that may be awhile. Here's the teaser pic I put out there on another thread, my apologies Blazerbogger. These are the kinds of trucks I see around here daily, thats why I build these instead of truggies. Maybe a little more rust on them  Some of you have seen the Blazer, and only blips of the other 2 , So here they are . I'm not gonna do the build up pics, just the final (almost final ) results 1st up: My Ole Blue worktruck. (what it looked like the day I got the body)  And now Leafed Highlift axles, w\BB's SCX10 Chassis an tranny. RC4WD Bruiser shocks repro grille An a lot of body work     I have tons of pics if anybody is curious or has questions on what or how I did something. |

| Next up. My Blazer
Some of you have seen this one already, So I'll keep it short. Its a stock highlift chassis, shortened about 3\4 " , 3 spd tranny, Axial 1.9 beadlocks, RC4WD Tomahawks for shoes, stock shocks stripped of the red anodizing. Lots an lots of bodywork.     And, No , I still haven't fastened the cap down yet. |

A person can get lost here so fast. If you haven't guessed by now, I normally use jeffro on the other forums. At the time I hadn't planned on getting involved with more then 1 forum, but I was following the release of the SCX10, so I went with jeffro bodean or just bodean. Anyway, the 4 door mods are (just in case you are curious) 2 clod bodies, of course, with drop bed and opening hood. TLT axles w\ bearings RC4WD 1.9 Roc Loc shoes RC4WD Killer T-Case RC4WD 80 mm shocks. (tryin to stay scale) real shocks are short. RC4WD softer black leaf springs Traxxas shafts (Revo maybe, don't remember, just long) Homemade chassis, all the shackles, and the perches in the rear. Tamiya Big Rig 3 spd Stock Tamiya PaJero wheels Repro clod grille from ebay Last edited by bodean; 09-21-2009 at 12:15 PM. Reason: add more | |

WOW, Thanks guys, all of ya. I'm glad ya like them. Almost hate to tear them up now, I got a little carried away. Here are some better pictures of the 4 door, it has a little ways to go before its done, its still in mock up, although it will run       |

Those all look awesome! I really love the blue 86. What did you have to do to make that body?

Thank You obijuan. No problem, you talked me into it. Im glad you like them. Would you believe thats a bumper from a Tamiya Toyota Highlift. I modded it just a little  Quote:
 Tried to make the bed look more realistic, since I couldn't do a drop bed   Hope that helps you. Quote:

Thank you FLB. Those are Tamiya Toyota Highlift mirrors, with the base reshaped a little to fit the contour of the chevy body. | |
