Default Toyota Hilux Sub-Zero MEX Short Edititon

When you merge the best parts of two projects


Rcmodelex Hilux Short Trial

+

Toyota Hilux JAPAN ZERO

you get something like this :












I have taken the chassis to be shot-blasted and powder-coated while I will cut the bed overhang. In the absence of doing the detail such as a welding bead, it is almost done.

Truck looks awesome .. I love the look of your naturally weathered F9's ... oh an I see what you did back there with the shocks ... looks up to par but how does it move? smooth and what about articulation.

I have changed the rear suspension, I have put some 70 straight ones, put like this they neither work nor hold... horrible, you'll see when I put it back together because at the moment...



Makes you want not to paint it, how good it looks just shot peened

That chassis looks nice painted. I wouldn't clear it at all. Unless it was a matte clear.

Something came from Germany, I love that country, honest and sincere people with the prices and the state of the material, not like here where they only buy Injora shit and we think we have gold when it comes to selling, and then we want gold at a price of wood
