|  Chip's SCX-10 Honcho Build
Well, I told Santa I wanted a SCX-10 Honcho for Christmas and when I woke up this morning there was one under the Chripmas bush. I am going to build this this truck with one thing in mind..... K.I.S.S. and no I don't mean the band, Keep It Simple Stupid. I am going to use the ESC and Servo from a 2WD Slash. For the motor I am going to use 550 can 21 turn Magnetic Mayhem motor from Kyosho for a little wheel speed and fun. I am going to run a 8 cell 5000 mah NIMH battery. The truck will have a 3 Racing winch and 5 1.9 Rok Lox.  |

Got it built...    Pretty sweet that the 3 racing winch is a direct fit on the bumper, but you have got to trim out the front bumper panel some.   Shot of the Honcho by my Hi Lux  Now, I need to hit the LHS for some paint and get this sucker painted up. Last edited by chip cross; 12-25-2009 at 06:43 PM. |

I like the " Invisible Truck" look . I am trying to decide between the Honcho and AX10 with a Jeep body . |

I just ordered the Tacoma sticker sheet, Warn winch sticker sheet, and the Ultimate sticker sheet from Bowtie that should really make this build nice.

But I like complicated! At least use some actual color on this one. Nice work Chip!

I have been being lazy bum. The only thing I have got done is all the electronics in and replaced 98% of the hardware that came with the truck. I changed it out to stainless steel. I just need to order some 2 mm hardware for the bumper, bed, and beadlock rings. I am gonna get everything painted up today.   I broke the winch hook about 15 minutes after I opened the package it came in so I replace it with a unit from Garden trucking.  Got to have a flex shot.

I know what you mean, I'm pretty lazy most of the time. The SCCX10 Courier I'm doing will have the most detail I've ever done to a rig. I've also been replacing all my hardware with stainless as I go along. It's nice stuff and the local Ace hardware carries what I need and orders it in bulk for me. That way I don't always have to drive all the way to gulfport for regular hardware. Can't wait to see what color you decide on!
