|  a real scale crawler! action pics pg10 well, it's a big claim but this is my most scale crawler to date! the vid was posted a few days ago and since then, i have added a winch and robbed the man out of my hilux. the nor-cal scale class is handing out negative points for scale items so i am going full bore on scaleism ( i need all the help i can get). soon i will have a functional tool box, tow strap, hi-lift, tow hooks and a few other items. here are the pics.     mmmm.... tail pipe! i am working on a smoke system right now so i will also have ozone killing pollution spewing from my exhaust!  driver and full interior   winch!  front leafs  rear 4-link. i need to redo the lowers to alleviate the torque twist from the high mounting position (but what clearance i have).  1.9 mashers?   headlights of course  LOOK OUT!!!  hope you liked the pics. can't wait to run this thing again! |

| Looks awesome.  Negative points for scale items? Looks like you're going to win without even entering the comps.  |

| Dean - Damn man, looking great. I guess I need to step up the scale items on my rig now to keep up in the negative points department ColquittCustom405 - You bet we tapped your line. I calle dup Mr. Bush himself to get the transcripts. Thanks for the idea. They worked great at our last comp  Here are the deductions we are giving in the Nor-Cal events. We will have to add "interior" to the list. Scaletastic bonus: (-1 pt) will be awarded for rigs with the following scale features. The goal is to build a scale rig and you will be rewarded for such things. • Hard Plastic body -1 • Custom bed -1 • Tools -1 – I.E. Shovel, Jerry cans, snorkel, tamiya wrench, axe, tow rope • Spare tires -1 • Functional Lights -1 • Sand Ladder/s -1 • Winch -1 • Trailer - 1 -Sam Last edited by SlinkySam; 10-01-2006 at 12:40 AM. |

| I watched your video the other day... and then I watched my favorite parts a second time. (minute 20 to minute 23 is the best) Probably the best scale video I've seen to date... Very Nice!!! |

| Nicely done. I gotta say I like the toolbox a hell of a lot more than that goofy half-top that came with the Bruiser. Wheels look sweet, too. I've always like the taller sidewalls you get with 1.9's. |

| Dean, If you ever sell this truck...I am buying it... Since I saw the video on friday, I just keep thinking how scale it is. I showed someone else the video and they thought it was real. Props to you my brotha, definitely the most scale Bruiser Hybrid to date. -Mike |
