Default Yeah I know, another Rubi/K2-3L
Well, I am finally getting a scaler going. Between working too much and spending time with the wife and kids it's been hard to get the time to build one.

Finally got a roller going and will have it complete for the Nats if all goes well.

It's nothing special. A lot of it was stuff I already had including the HPI Rubicon body.

very nice, really clean. It reminds me to get my F-100 project pics up before I paint the chassis!

It looks good. I like the shock setup, it looks like it should work really well.

Thanks. I wanted to position the ft. shocks vertically so they would look more like a real rig.

Nice chassis and a great platform to work from.
Thanks

Here it is with the body. I still have lots I would like to do but this is all I have time for before Nationals.

Kinda a quick and little bit sloppy paint job. I wanted to paint flat black on the outside of the flares but don't have the time.

For all of those who were bugging me about getting a scaler together,,,,, here it is. Not too scalish but at least it's something.

I wish I had the skills. I will be building bumpers though along with other improvements.

Thanks for the feedback.

It did pretty well. I'm used to my comp rig so it seems a little tippy.
