Re: the barbie willys I like it a lot, the light blue with the black works . The liner looks spot on as well . |
Re: the barbie willys The blue is killer and works well with the black. The bedliner material looks spot on perfect. Love this rig. "thumbsup" |
Re: the barbie willys very nice... what kind of paint did you use for the black bed liner? |
Re: the barbie willys That's great looking work, man. I really like the cage. |
Re: the barbie willys very nice build.....but Barbie doesn't look as good as I remember. |

Re: the barbie willys What brand of jeep did you start with? I haven't seen another brand that has the separate chassis like the Hasbro, but your body has some different details compared to the Hasbro. |

Re: the barbie willys The one thing I didnt like was the orangish color head lights this thing has. So I will just use some glue to hold the grill and rad housing together. i just made a notch in the grill shell for the back of the housing, drilled a 1/8" hole, cut the bottom of the housing in about half. Then you can see the diff much better I think. Yes that is the large axail one, I will prob cut the little bars off the cover. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/DSC01808.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/DSC01809.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/DSC01810.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/DSC01812.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/DSC01813.jpg |
Re: the barbie willys Axial buckets look great in there. "thumbsup" |
