Default BGR Honcho backhalf

Hey guys, decided to start doin tigwelded steel scale parts and have had a lot of requests for some truggy stuff. Came up with this over the weekend and is a simple bolt In cage. We will be workin on a few other bodies too, but figured this body is very common.

Looks great I totally dig the storage area behind the cab.

May I suggest adding a small bumper a tad wider than the frame to get it in SORRCA spec for class 2 or ask the rules committee of it will pass as is. .

Won't it pass as a flat bed? As truggy needs to be fully tube behind the cab?

Yes kinda, flat beds can't dove tail, but looking for bumper points also and don't think what's there would count.

Looks good, woud you consider making a cage for the tamiya plastic bodys too? Woud be a killer combo imo, and id buy it in a heartbeat.

I like this, simple, effective and not over engineered.

Projected price point?

Whipped up a new bumper for the front and most likely will be producing these. Makin a bit shorter and wider center section, to give it a sleeker look.... Thoughts??

Thank you for using TUBE and high quality steel tube...I'm so tired of solid rod heavy azz stuff.

Suck that bumper in tight, that is one reason I got rid of stock Honcho bumper long time ago, it gets in the way of climbing everything. I like the curve in on the two bottome down tubes, but they should have the curve right at the front of the frame rails and bolt in so that it replaces stock plastic crossmember.
