Default jeep comanche see what people think

this is my first attempt at a scale crawler. it started life as a exceed maxstone10 that my wife got me for xmas but after lots of breaking it has turned into what u see. the only thing left on it from the maxstone is the front axle, reciever, steering servo,driveshafts, and links. I know it would have been money ahead to have just started with the scx10, put it got me into the hobby and now i'm hooked here's some pics so if there something i should change let me know

Love it! The only thing it needs is another 100,000 miles on it to properly break it in! Comanches are cool!

Any body have Ideas for inner fenders they discountinued the underbody tray for the scx10 should I post a build on my plow it was inexpensive and it works great if there is I'll post it in the scale accesories or I might just do it anyways

You can still find the under trays around. I saw one today, I think on Ebay or at RPP. If not I've seen them made from plastic bowls or cans.

No. Stupid phone slipped and accidentally hit send before I was done. I'm all thumbs.

The under trays still available from rpphobby.com. I just bought one for my cherokee build. The interior panel on the other hand is hard to find.

DinkyRC's Honcho interior will also work, with some trimming. It's a really nice kit. I'm working on it now for my 2 speed Comanche rig. BTW, yours looks killer! Definitely do more lights .

I'll get some pictures taking today and try to post the plow build tonight. The materials I used were 12 inch piece of 3 inch pvc pipe for the blade. A steering knuckle from a tamiya blackfoot . Axial wraith upper links for the A frame. A small hinge for a screen door used to make the blade fold down, when it hits something and small springs from the hardware store to pull the blade back up the lettering I got at hobbylobby. I'll get more detailed later if you already have a winch material cost is about $20.00 . The blade mounts on the scx10 chassis were your front bumper mounts to the frame , using longe screws in stead of the factory ones.
