new Land Rover Defender D90 Plastic Body on SCX10....
 
I had this body 2 years now but I didn't have the time to put it on. It needs a lot of work and the other one was pretty good, so, now is the time....

THIS is previous version:

And here is on the bench, cutting the links to fit the chassis on the body length:

The body is steady on chassis... and now I have to start fixing the scale interior!
