| I'm bringing some cool stuff to Montana for the scale guys to see. Thanks guys. Well, sorry for the lack of a running buildup thread like the pros do. I was just too busy, hells I was up till 4am this morning and still didn't get finished. There's still lots to finish up and change so I'll be going back through it all and will post up details then. For now here it is ready to go to Montana, certainly not done though. I apologize for the Savage bumper but there was just no more time to build one. What'cha think? I'm so excited about this thing I caint stand it. Last edited by Grizzly4x4; 11-13-2008 at 12:13 AM. |

| No, he sold it on Ebay a couple years ago. He stripped all the drive train and running gear off it and sold the chassis. I've been following the buildup of his new one on Pirate. Money shot, notice the top of the tires relation to the headlight and the amount of tire sticking out past the body. Those are some of the things I really tried to match. It's not perfect yet but close. Other things I put my own spin on. I made the cage short to give it the chopped top feel of a hot rod. |

Once you have time are you gonna make a front bumper similar to the 1:1?

I saw one just like it recently that was painted hot pink. Thought for sure it was the same one. | |

Two things I've noticed that need improvement, which is a hard thing to say about such a beautiful rig. (aside from the lame azz HPI bumper, which you said you were ditching) 1. The spare tire needs to go. It just doesn't belong because of it being so different in every way. 2. I think the front fenders could be trimmed a little more to resemble the 1:1 counterpart. |

Thanks Brandon, I wanted to do some purple fade flames but again, just ran out of time. I have an idea that I want to run by you later for the next body. Quote:

The down side is that the paint chips like crazy . I expect to leave little purple flakes all over Montana. When it is time for a redo I'll likely get it powder coated in purple. | ||||

2. Agreed again, I think it would look better with the fenders cut out more. I also plan to leave a little more of the rear quarter like JR's on the next body. Great minds think alike. Last edited by Grizzly4x4; 05-16-2007 at 03:43 PM. | |
