Default 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




chassis link
http://www.crawlerx.net/index.php?ma...5a57f673cabc92

rough idea of how to mount the body not sure yet if all use it.




iam thinking of building a frame like the honcho has. but more my way going to put the back window back on. going to try and get some styrene sheet and tubing tomorrow




any comments greatfull
