texx that look REAL nice....i would leave the roll bar blue. at first i would of said paint it but it fits...

for the interior thats up to you.....

i would recomend painting the bed cover maybe a flat tan,it will give it a more real look to it. like stretched leather or vinyl.

THANK YOU. TWISTED. I appreciate much.
OK…. if I included/understood
1= I keep the blue roll-bar.
2= I painting the back fabric ( tan - flat ) ..

QUESTION ########

1 = To cover the back fabric with true leather, would be a good idea . ### ?
2 = BLACK-CAB should it remain on the frame of my SCORPION with the large tires. or to turn over on its frame to him with its small tires ### ?
3 = the small tires ( mickey thompson ) on the photograph top is good side ### ?

THANK .......

covering the back with real fabric would be an alternative and totaly up to you. i would just paint it as it already hasa textured look.

i like the black cab on the smaller tire truck.looks more scale.

i dont understand your 3rd question ...

HELLO ....THANK .. TWISTER ...
..After having to finish the body BLACK-CAB, I takes again my SCORPION..
. I had some parts in excess which came from my JEEP and I have to think has to place ROCK- SLIDERS on my SCORPION..
I have to screw them on the frame SCORPION and that seems to me pretty,
I have also to sand and painted the axes blue in black.
I have also to bore three other holes( 1/8 ) in each rims to let leave the air even more…

. Tomorrow, I will inform me with the store of hobby if my parts are available to manufacture my TRACK-BAR.[IMG]http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/

HELLO.
I have to install (( 4 )) TRACK-BAR on my SCORPION and that functions SUPER good.

(( THANK YOU TWISTED )) for this good idea.
##############################################
The axes of the crawler are more solid and they do not rub with the tires.
My SCORPION still raises the foot of 6 inches.
I had my parts with the store of hobby, TOTAL $25.00


Thank you with all for your good councils.[IMG]http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/

TRICKEDOUTNYLINT06.......I am afflicted,
I would like me also to find partners, but here in QUEBEC ( QUEBEC CITY )they are very rare,
I always only find themselves with my crawler on the rock.
Thank you for this thought and good luck in your search for partners.

Unless I move in your city :-) :-)

PVTJR01550 .. THANK.....THAT GIVEN PLEASURE TO HEAR… this afternoon I did one tests on the rock and its behavior is very good. But I had forgotten my video camera, it will be for another time..... The (( TRACK-BAR )) are very useful, it keeps the stable crawler, I like them, and my tires work well. There will remain to me the POWER STEERING and ELECTRONICS to be changed. THANK YOU FOR THE COMMENT.

HELLO…
I took the desision that BLACK-CAB would be the main thing body on frame NYLINT.

I like it and that saddened me to see it hidden on a rack.

Now, it is regulated.

My SCORPION will be in vacancy.[IMG]http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/
