Default Work, Play, Tow.

Ok guys I have been running my scx10 for three years now, I built it as the kit pre honcho, it has had several bodies including this one stock. The wheel base has been pushed out in the rear 1/2" . I am on a severe budget until I find a job. Going for the look of a work truck/ support truck aka 4wheel & offroads ultimate adventure truck from 09, with my own twist.
Anyway a list of what I am running

Stock driveshafts
Stock shocks
Stock trans
Stock axles
Traxxas Xl5
Hitek 645 servo
Rc4wd 2 Face tires
Rc4wd steel beadlocks
lots of custom aluminum

Pics in the next post

Thanks Hollaitzwillie. The bed is 1/8" and the fenders are 1/16" thick.

I got the fenders mounted.



Full stuff.

Haha! I spend half the time I am in here looking for tools on the workbench. The wife won't come into this room except to throw stuff on my workbench. When I get digusted with it I clean it up, just about there..hehe.

Got the headache rack on. The cuts are not perfect but will do for now.
I threw some scale stuff in the back, I am going to put some lights on it and some bracing for the rack, and some new stickers.

I didn't like the stock grill, so it got a billet grill to replace it.

Thanks guys. Yes Bambie all bent by hand, and first try ever. I used a bench vise for the sharp creases and my thumbs for the soft radius. Hammered the leading edge.
