| Re: G-FORCE RC4WD Scale Build off entry "ST8OFKANVAS" I feel your pain, I have a LHS but they carry VERY limited crawler/scale stuff. Mostly RC planes and railroad stuf. And their prices are super high too, I just cant afford to buy from them, its a shame.

I've been looking for a winter project and was considering one of the older jeeps like this. Yours is coming out great. Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing this at the river next year.

Thanks your words are encouraging. With all the veteran builders it is intimidating. Lots of info on this forum. All the questions have been asked I have been guided by the search forum. I can't imagine a better convertible! Quote:
Now back to building. | ||
