Looks legit! Love the "bed" of the truck. Always wanted one like that for my 1/6 Ranger, but changed plans.

Thanks !

I dig it because it closely resembled a truck called " Mt toy ".


In fact, I'm actually painting my brother's truck the same paint scheme.

Build looks good. I can remember the build on pirate 4x4 for the MT Toy. Lots of neat tricks hidden on that. Couldn't think of s better 1:1 to emulate.

Thanks, it was a great build on pirate. I just get a kick out of how strongly the Cchand bed matched the 1:1.

I was going to comp cut the doors on my yota but chickened out. It was a lot of work to get silly tuh-mee-yuh driver to fit in that interior and I didn't want to run risk of having to modify the floor height so the cut didn't look silly.
Knowing what I know now, maybe one day I'll go back and cut them.
Then again I might just cut them in my brother's.




Thanks for looking, suggestions welcome !!

Wow, great looking build and nice rig to emulate! Cutting the doors requires some dedication, haven't done mine yet either, maybe I should buy a second body to work on whilst driving the other? I was thinking about using the Tamiya driver too, but ya kinda lotta cutting work on the dude to make him fit.

Late to the party as usual for me. I usually don't really like flat beds/tube beds but your TF2 came out badass. was the cab exo made by the original owner or do you know it it can be purchased?

Thanks man !
As for the cab exo, I'm really not sure where it came from bud. It was on the rig when I received it.
