Sorry guys I have been hella busy at work and have been traveling a ton. I am waiting for one last piece which is a Dinky RC split skid and divorce kit, once I have this I can really get cranking on a ton of the fab work on this truck. One good thing about me having to travel so much is that I have had a ton of time to really think about how I want this thing to come out. The jury is still out on the Land Rover body I am pretty sure I can make it look right and still perform but it is to early to tell. I have a backup plan if it doesn't work. Anyway enough of me talking on to a couple of pics of some mock up. It should have plenty of steering!! Oh if anyone knows of some one that wants to get rid of a DMG v3 axle truss I would be in there debt. Thanks for looking and all of the comments I will keep it updated as fast as I can! L |

Finally I got some time to work on this thing! I was able to get about 90% of the tube work done and just have a little bit more to do. then it is on to the interior. This is the first time have used styrene soe we will see how it goes. After that I have to powere coat the axles and built the links. I am planning to put a Team Brood 30t Chaos Type GT motor to give her a lot of torqe but still keep some wheel speed. Anyway on to the pics. Let me know what you guys think I will try to get the rest of the fab work done as soon as I can. Last edited by darkmanx; 06-08-2012 at 10:01 PM. |

Thanks buddy! I just have a little more to do and then I will blast it and get it ready for paint. I am in a little bit of a holding pattern because i am waiting on one of those Dinky GR7's but it is what it is.

Looks good. Are you ever going to bring the axles over so I can run them through the blaster? those are some fancy wheels you got. |

| Re: >< Black Widow Build >< Thanks man dude just the other night I woke up in the middle of the night and all I could think about was how to mount a servo winch in this thing. This addiction is hard to even explain, it's like CRACK! only better for your teeth!!! J/K BTW. I am hoping to get the axles blasted this week then it is on to powder coating them which worries me alittle but I am sure they will turn out good. |

It is just the thought of powder coating a set of 600$ axles that had my blood pressure up. I have all the faith in the world of your ablity to make them look awesome. I have been on the road so much I havn't had any time to work on this thing, but I will get back to it hopefully this weekend.
