This Project was kept below radar for the past 2 years. Rckcrwlr wanted to do a replica of Avalanche Engineering's Rock Buggy. She indeed looks closely to the real Mc Coy.

Love the straight lines, clean welding and powder coat. Roc Joc and Crawlin Coles created this masterpiece. You guy are AWESOME!

Thanks Rckcrwlr. I am sincere humbled and grateful for the opportunity to be part of this project. You are such a tremendous buddy whose generosity and kindness is overwhelming. Thank also to Roc Joc and Crawling Coles for the fantastic work.

Thanks again Mike. Please extend my sincerest gratitude to the RC4WD Team, as well.

Oh snap! You are using Blackwell axles under it, that's awesome. This is going to be a killer build. Keep the pics coming.
