If not for the grooves in the tire lugs I'd think it was real. Don't keep us waiting damnit!

I look forward to your build for inspiration. I am currently building an SCX10 with Ambush body and have a CC-01 with vintage Brat body next in line.

Hey Guys - A big "THANK-YOU" to everyone who's commented on the secret "sneek peek" of my custom Toyota FJ40 Project.

I was asked (and honored) to build a custom scaler for "Radio Control Car Action Magazines" upcoming annual "Rock Crawler" Issue which has actually JUST hit the newsstands now... ( Theres a red Tamiya CC-01 Jeep Crawler on the front cover)

I will begin a build thread a little later on this week.. It was a fun truck to create, but just like everything "custom"- it did have its "snags" along the way.. More to come soon- Stay Tuned -
