I have been having such a good time with my SCX10 Blazer that I decided I wanted to build another one

. This time I will be adding some more detail to the build and hopefully do some tube work.

I will be posting updates in this thread, but for more detailed pictures and instructions on how I did most of the work check out Axial's Blog: Axial Blog

The first part of the build can be seen here: Brandon's SCX10 Trail Ranger

I wont share any pics of the SCX10 Build process, its stock for now. I added Axial's aluminum shocks. I want to pick up another set for the blazer now. They are much nicer than the plastic versions!

The Axial Trail Ranger body fit perfectly and the Styrene work began.

Keep an eye on the Axial blog for updates. I will do my best to update this thread as well

Bite Me Brandon How can we compete with your skills. To bad your so far away now so I can't see it in person.

Dude

Why do you and Josh have to do this to me. Every time I see these new build's I get fire for a new rig.

I will have 40 truck

Looking good B! You should paint it Orange in honor of me!

Big Bill · 07-14-2009, 01:00 PM

Looking good Brandon, Iam just finishing one of these up but with a FJ-40 (Bushwacker) body. I didnt know that you had moved down south, good luck down there.

No problem Brian, its too much fun to resist. I love having more than one scaler to share for others to enjoy.

Good to know. I appreciate the invite, I would love to make it out there. You guys just running scalers on Wed nights?

FROADER · 07-14-2009, 05:31 PM

Usually just scalers (that's all I own), but some people bring the 2.2 comps out to play.

rckjeep · 07-15-2009, 12:42 AM

Brandon, I just noticed your locations says OC, you moved I guess, huh. What happened to beautiful downtown Manteca?

BGGruff · 07-15-2009, 09:59 AM

Nice job! The more I see these bodies the more I like them. Nice work on the rear bed and tool box.

Yup I moved right after WCC. Decided to take a job down here and I am not regretting it at all. I think beautiful Manteca is 100+ today. Glad I got out of that

Thank you! These bodies fit the SCX really well.

Brandon · 07-20-2009, 09:43 AM

Finished the paint on the Trail Ranger body. Painted on the outside with black accents.

Here are a few quick pictures. Be sure to check out Axial's Blog for more details on the paint process

sally1800 · 07-20-2009, 10:20 AM

That looks just like a Harley rig
