Got a lot done today. The cage is in the light bar is mounted and wired.



Got all the decals made and on the rig.

1:1


G6


1:1 Side decals


G6 Side



And here is a shot of the two together.


I'm waiting on a set of wheels that look close to my 1:1 wheels. Got to build a light bar for the front bumper and a few led pods. Then figure out the rear bumper and sliders. Wanting to make or find a set that look like the side steps on the 1:1

How did you do the decals? This is a sweet build. I'm in for the ride (subbed)

A while back I bought me a vinyl decal plotter/cutter. It was a pain to try and make them so small. Took about 6 try before I got enough good decals to use them.

You should definitely invest in the axial rigid light bar. Everything matches so well except the light bar and the rigid would look exactly the same.
Nice job though. Love the little decals.

Yeah that's true been thinking about going that way. Maybe down the road I'll switch it out.

Got to do some work on my G6.

Finally found a set of wheels that look similar to my 1:1s.



I also managed to put together a tramp stamp and license plate to get it looking more like the real thing.

And of course I had to use scale hardware.

Installed some high clearance knuckles. This doesn't match my real Jeep but wanted more clearance for the tie rod.

Made a muffler and whip antenna for the G6. Had to weather the muffler to match my 1:1 jeep

Thanks. Those decals were the biggest pain to make and put on. I'll never do it again.

Finally got my 4pls for he G6.

Seeing as the transmitter cost as much as the truck I had to get a case. Instead of spending $50 for a Trans case and hauling around that with my pit bag I thru together a all in one case.




Holds everything I need except the charger but I think if I do some rearranging I can fit it in there too.

Got less the $20 buck into it.

It's from harbor freight. It was on sale. It would make a good case for anything with the pik and pluck foam it comes with. I might make a double hand gun case out of one.

Nice looking Jeeps, your build is sweet to say the least.
I really enjoy watching these rigs come together.

Did you paint it inside or the outside?
It is looking great!
