|  Newbie trying to figure the best way to build box for 6x6.
Hey all, So I have a 6x6 build going on, and I plan on makin her look like a Dakar racing truck. (Camel Sponsors) I've never built a body before and wondering what would be my best way? Sheet metal? styrene? And is there any plus or minus's with either? I figured metal because of the durability but obviously weight could be an issue as well. How hard is working with styrene? Many tools required? It's basically just a rectangular box. Any tips or how to vids on the go? Thanks all |

Although styrene is relatively cheap and not to hard to work with there is better materials to use. if your cab is made of styrene the first roll over you have it is going to crumple unless reinforced. If i were you i would go with a relatively thin steel sheet metal such as 16-20 Gauge |
