| Pardonmyn00b's old 4Runner
Some may have seen this up for sale in the classified recently, it was being sold by Chris/51willysjeep. I have always been a huge fan of Rich's OG 4Runner and figured I would be able to give it a good home...however, it came with quite a price (worth it) and I didnt have all the funds up front. Chris and I have done several deals over the past few years and he was glad to see that I wanted it and allowed me to make a few payments for the Runner over the course of a few weeks. Well the runner showed up last week and I quickly went over it. It didnt need much, it was RTR but I swapped the radio for spektrum set up so I can could use my DX3R. After that, I laid my 1:1 4Runner flat black scheme, glue the tires and finally got it out for a shake down run. Specs currently are the following Custom Pardonmyn00b 4Runner body with sliding rear cap windows and lights Bumpers and sliders by Rich Wheels and tires from SDI SCX10 Rooster ESC Hitec 645 Future plans are to mount the body to a TF2 as it looks so good sitting my current TF2. Once I obtain a TF2 ill rebuild all new Marlin Crawler armor for it and keep on crawling |

I spent a few moments on that first pic trying to figure out how and why you photo shopped axial axles under a 1:1 4runner. |

Haha, that little thing gets around. Glad to know you have it and it's getting driven. It will be awesome with a TF2 under it.

That looks fantastic!! If it weren't for the Axial axels, that rig could pass for the real thing in those pictures!
