Default 2010 Disturbed fab buggy.....by wicked fab works

hey guys had been wanting a fj40 style buggy for a while now and there was a sale point i found here in the 2.2 section, it was "buggy's m-and-m disturbed fab" build... the look of the rigs these guys do was right up my alley.. so i pulled the trigger and had the guy with the fresh blue star take on the project! tim from Wicked Fab Works bit on the project quick! this guy was back and forth with any questions i had! so far a great guy to deal with...
anyway back to the project!
i plan on running-
*axial trans for the rig as parts are abundent
*2.2 crushers
*unknown wheels at the moment??
*going to try and find some sort of HH motor to throw in here
*crawlers esc
*110 mm scale rc4wd coilovers
*axial axles or wk
*...
*...
*more parts as i get the thing and collect more lol

with that being said i wanted to have some pics from the last few days to get the project to look like something.. so here we go!
comments and haters welcome!

they are used in my "real" job to pull canvas fabric around the corners of tubing so that its tight on top. I make commercial and residential awnings frsttimer has it correct as to what it is except we sand the "cutter" part down to a rounded edge so that it doesnt cut the canvas
