Default 1:6 F150 - Maxx Based

Well i had stuff laying around.... and i was bored..... cant do anything to other builds so came up with this.

No turning back now.

Hello 16" Wheelbase.

Body sittin on top, gotta do body mounts still.



Thinkin about narrowing the control arms a little bit.

Had it up for sale and nobody wanted it, even when i dropped the price way too low.
So here she is, and im tired of sanding.


Fender section was missing, so i cut it square and replaced it. Still working on it.

Couple vertical braces, hard to see cause they are slathered in cement haha.
