Thanks for the thumbs up!

I used to have some mud slingers, they worked well in dirt&etc but I do more slick rock sort of scaling. I used to have some, looked cool, just didn't perform the greatest...lol. Also, I just think the rock grabbers are not to scale looking, but thanks for the heads up.

Updates...

-Finished floor
-Passenger frame
-Floor Pan supports and floorpan
-Started Exo cage brazing
-Made diamond plate toolbox(To hold 3c lipo, reciever, BEC and BL winch controller.)
-Made a cooler (To hold Mamba Max ESC, fits like a glove(Thinking about adding vent or holes later for cooling.)

My plan tomorrow is to sand, primer, sand, paint and clear.

nice work Justin, I wish i knew you were going for that look on the hood.
I had a piece of carbon fiber vynal that would have made that orange pop, but mybe on the next one. I am an orange **** myself, maybe not on my crawlers but in my real 1/1 jeeps etc. can't wait to see it done.

SICK! I just finished reading his 1:1 build thread on Pirate... I'm impressed

I may have to jump on board with nearly destroyed clod body and narrow her up. Great work man, keep the updates coming.
