I had a feeling it needed a little more..... 80's... so how about some genuine 1980's Autographics stripes?





Oh, and there is something I need to mention. After fitting the body I found the front swinging shackles fouled against the back of the rocker panel. A little removal of plastic form the inside of the front pan cleared it up nicely and now I can use all of the front travel.

The body parts will be available after the initial wave of kit orders have been dealt with (as to other spares). And it will fit your Tamiya body, but remember to order the clear parts for the light lenses.

I love the stripes on your truck. Now I wish they would come out with a first gen 4runner body! I'd be all over that!

Facelift with red paint and those sweet RC4WD wheels and tires looks great! Trail pics or any other mods?
