Exclamation 85 4runner on Pigsnot Rails

Hello!

Here to show you guys my next build

Started it like a month ago but haven't had much time to upload pics and post but here we are.

This will be a SWB build on some Pigsnot Chassis Diamond Rails i picked up last December. Will be running on AR44 axles.

Rolling chassis is already assembled and pretty much looks like this










cheers!

not much time for little trucking but a little update!

front end is almost finished so i can concentrate on the body. Headlights are next and some proper wiring tucking!

Looks good! I assume the hood will be cut out so it can open?

I've never seen that body before, sorry to ask such a common question but where is that body from?

EDIT: it looks to be a Team Bluegroove body, possibly discontinued or just hard to come by.

Good looking build.

How short is that wheelbase?

And how much did you get socked for the Knight front clip?
