Default 1st gen Toyota Bodies

hey, I've seen a lot of awesome toyota builds and I would like to know where the bodies come from, more specifically a part #. I want to make a truggy to copy my own 1:1 rig, "the Smurf"
I'm having a hard time searching, the site is being really slow for me.





Cheers,
Steve KAlinocka

We are getting ready to start a scale Toyota build as well. I got the cab,bed,windows and grill all from RCP Crawlers.

hmmm, everyone in the 1:1 wheeling crowd that I know of refer to it as first gen, I think its because its the first 4x4.

you can order them through RPP hobby too. scroll down to get to all the hilux parts.
also, check the vendors section as someone (reign-rc I think) is making and selling a completed cab back so you dont have to make one.

rpp tamiya bodies:

Default 1:1 wheeler

I had a completely built 81 toyota 4x4 and the first gen actually ends in 79 if you look at them the cab sits about 3-4 inches lower than the cab. but I do believe our model 1:1 wheelers were considered 1st gen 4x4.
And have you found a body yet cause I would really like to do the same thing
