Tubework done & powdercoated. I love black fine texture!   I made some mounts for the seats  I made some handles for the tube doors out of 4-40 screws & 1/8 square stock  Body on flex shot  Bed Cage   I'm gonna run the spares side x side & that shelf behind the cab will house a gas can & a power tank. Maybe scale welding tanks, if I can find them. The body work is almost done so it's time for some styrene/detail work. And I'm not sure what color to paint the body. I have a few choices: satin black white - like a desert truck Olive drab w/black hood or Blue w/white hood like this  |

Hot damn that's sexy, great work. You sure do build sweet rigs! I think satin black with red pin strips.

Damn Coles, that is looking great. The powdercoat really cleans up all the tubework and ties it all into the frame nicely. I love the doors too, real smooth.

After cutting the doors out the body was too weak. I've already broken it twice, so I decided on the interior cage w/tube doors. Quote:

I got the body all primered up and started on the styrene work, did I mention that I love that stuff! Hi-lift Jack   Fuel cell & cargo holder. I want some lil welding tanks to go in there too.  I'm really liking the dual spares!  I had to take it out for a shakedown run yesterday & couldn't stop going through the puddles! Everything seems to work fine. The only problem I had was the tires kept coming off the wheels!!!! | |||||

I'm a Land rover man by definition, but that is a great looking rig. especially that cage work!!!!! What are you going to do with the wheels? what about the pressed steel RC4WD ones? |
