for what it is it handles pretty good. kinda top heavy though, but very predictable-full droop

I really dig those old flat fenders. Nice detail down to the grab bars and tools. All it needs is some non-directionals. I like! |

I wish I could find one of those jeeps around here. I'd like to do a flat fender build.

| Great flatty
That is one of the best scale flatties I have seen yet man way to go. I dunno I may get burned for saying this but have you thought of stripping the chrome off the rims and going flat black or olive drab? The chrome looks a bit bling bling if you are going for the straight military look. Or you can ignore me either way sick rig man.

maybe your friend could paint the wheels black and/or some black wheels with silver beadlocks. also maybe some narrow tires; just my 2 cents.
