| green bronco
Over the past month or so I've been collecting parts from the ebays. Over the past week I put together my first scx10. I won't bore you with the details of the build. I just wanted to share some pics with fellow scx'ers. I still have quite a lot to do on the bronco. I'm messing around with an interior and an axial NVS led kit. Also, I recently got the supplies an materials to try and braze some stuff... The bronco needs a better front bumper and some metal sliders for sure. Those are going to be my first brazing projects =) I've been able to put a pack through the bronco and I'm pretty happy with it's abilities so far. It's a good addition to the fleet.

I like the way the rest bumper wraps around for protection. What tires are you running?

| Re: green bronco Thanks man! Like I said it's a work in progress, but I'm happy so far. Quote:
The tires are RC4wd 1.9 baja claws. I'm happy with the scale-ness of them, but I hope they break in a little bit. They are a bit stiff. I may just need to trim the foams more. Thanks! Yeah I am very pleased with the rear end. | |

I'm not sure why those pictures formatted sideways like they did. Click here for my imgur album with correct formatting. |

Nice truck, I really like the stance it has. Nice job on the bumper too; I can't wait to get in to that part of my build.

built back up. All waterproof to the best of my abilities. Changed the gearing a bit. The hitch works pretty well with the trailer |

| More Green I thought I would share another shade of green! This body is a radio shack mangler bronco that has been highly modified. I have a orignal mangler still. Last edited by twissted; 11-20-2013 at 12:55 PM. |
