Just got back from a trade show in Chicago but the brass parts are painted, will get them on soon. I'm not sure I want to build a brass rack for the roof for weight reasons, anyone know where I could get a plastic setup? I'm thinking about buying a 1:24 Dirt Rider Hummer H3T and stealing the roof goodies off the top.

why not styrene? easy to make and repair if needed. should be durable and light enough for the roof

That's an idea too, haven't ever worked with it before.

Been a long time since I've done anything with this rig, was sparked a few weeks ago and pulled it out of the box. Glued up the ROK LOX and weighted the wheels with 8-10 wraps of solder. Been having so much fun in the flower beds that I picked up a Trail Trekker and a Commander body for my daughter, she's 2 1/2 and loves driving it around the house, it's a good practice car for her to get the controls down.

I lost all the parts I made for this body along with the roof rack and headlight LEDs when I moved into my current house. Will have to start all over sometime.
