Default Dinky R/C Series-5 KOH Jeep #002






"Series-5" KOH Jeep
*****Serial #002*****
================



Obviously, if it's a Series-5,
that meant there will be more than one, right?!
AND
It would have to be cool...

We'll start from the beginning,
but might skip around a bit, thru-out the build.

The frame rails, gotta start from square one.



Onto the main upper tubes.
You can spot #001 in the back ground for reference.


And then we started on the cage. It really started to flow,
so it kinda skips some already...


This seemed to really tighten things up a bit.


Alright, everyone show there work



More progress tomorrow, this one's gotta move.

Cuz it might already be...sold...?

Another fine looking Dinky KOH rig. I don't know how, but you reached in that magic hat and pulled out another design that looks as good as your first, if not better, and yet it shares almost no styling ques with the first design. How'd you pull that off, Captain Creativity? Good work.

Looking good so far. I like the long roof on this one, more like a PSC rig though.

Hey, Thanks Nickle! I did say from the get go, that everyone of them would be different. Already getting ideas for the next one. Gotta finish this one first.

Can't wait to see yours all finished up. We need pics AND video!!!!!

Looks bad a$$. Love the 'T' top look and the lines the roof are really cool. Can't wait to see how this comes together.

Nice work sir. I love the idea of "I build it, you buy it". Learn to trust your style you will.

I'll keep my eyes peeled! Just hope they fit in this one.
If not, might have to work them around a GRU on the next one.

This build is currently stalled out for just a bit. New upper and lower link set
is on it's way, and should be here Wednesday. We will get back underway at that time.

I think this one will still have a slant, just not quite as much angle. Still narrowed though.

Too many irons in the fire, and not enough hands on deck! I'm hoping to make some progress on it today. Just got the link set in the mail yesterday from Agama (#002's new owner ), so it's ready to continue now.

Oh yeah, I'm excited about this rig. After seeing #001 I had to get my hands on one of your builds.
