lancruiser crawler

done a deal with a guy i know for his micro crawler and decided iam going to build akinda scale crawler i know it would be better with another body but i am not paying stupid postage prices from the usa to the uk. so iam going to be using a mini-z o/l landcruiser body ive done some work to the body just filling holes. not sure about paint yet the chassis will be a ladder type one with working leaf springs and shackles from blades workshop this will be kinda a slow progress one as i have to work somethings out but all post any progress

mounted on my tmc chassis
