Dorkstar Productions Presents... "Hera," an Experiment in Terror
 
I'm not sure this is a good idea....


But what the hell.





Loaded Axial axles from my Dorkstar Jeep/Chevy 2.2"

Summit Tranny from the same donor:

I wanted the tranny to sit flush on the SCX skid, so some shaving was in order:

Axial SCX10 Chassis rails x4. There's no better scale chassis!

Drop section:

Prepped for welding:

Welded:

Basic front mockup- the summit tranny sits a bit lower on the srop section, but the stock Axial SCX-10 skid is still utilized.

That's all for today.

Bad things are coming.

Stay tuned....

I like that about you.

ecoli 06-10-2010 08:48 PM

I can only imagine what you're up to Ryan.

So is there a reason you're naming it after the Greek goddess of women and marriage :D?

dezfan 06-10-2010 08:50 PM

X-trail is aluminum, and I' like welding to my chassis. :D

I've always liked the name Hera, although the Greek goddess isnt ideal in definition. She was vengeful and murderous though, which is something! :)

I got all excited thinking that you were going to rebuild the tupperware monster...

Seriously though, I look forwarding seeing (and hopefully photographing) another one of your crazy creations in action.

Grizzly4x4 06-11-2010 01:44 PM

This is making me very anxious......I can't wait to see what madness ensues Ryan. "thumbsup":ror:
