scout body builds redcat is having a clearence sale going on right now so i couldent resist and ordered a axe body and i have a new gen8 body also the plan is to build them both basicly the same only differance one will have the full top and the axe will be able to run different tops or no top lol the plan is to do a interior and a stock looking role bar and switch between the 2 bodys and differnt tops depending on how i feel my 1:1 has 4 differnt top options or go full convertable ill probably try and make a half cab and a bikini top maybe ill get a wild hair and mimic the cab over pop top camper thats on the scout now the old gen8 body is going on the track clod i really like the way it looks and been waiting to finish a new body for the gen8 so i could repurpass the old body |

Re: scout body builds |
Re: scout body builds Lookin great ferp! There are almost too many cool bodies now. Nice choice for a build. |
Re: scout body builds thank you smog i really like how its coming out so much i think i figured out how to paint my 1:1 its a gray and rust right now lol i have the terra top already and the windows for it a bonus the terra tops are fiberglass so there lighter than the scout half cab top and they look so much better too |
Re: scout body builds alittle more body work https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/60/7a/58tabLy2_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/ba/17/w4zghd2X_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/b4/b7/lv2udrMX_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/b4/e0/pb4D07oZ_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/49/63/d2vqYa5U_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/28/fd/f81eAnvk_t.jpg |
Re: scout body builds Looks good Ferp, especially for your first time with styrene. Better than my first time[emoji23] |
Re: scout body builds Quote:
alittle bit of filler to smooth it out and a coat of paint and it should be good oh and a back window Quote:
no need for mirrors and door handles they will just snap off in the first or second run anyway Quote:
if i could have found a 8" thor that diddnt look like a fast and furrios teckno cosplay dork head i probably would have gone that route |
Re: scout body builds |
Re: scout body builds i got the body work done on the top and a coat of paint its not perfict but hay its just gona get smashed onthe rocks anyway lol once the paint finishes drying ill put down another coat and trim out the back window and glue in the back window and call it a day on this top anyway pics https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/08/05/YJvUIpv8_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/13/23/MgEdMcck_t.jpg https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/e7/df/WIqcRIx0_t.jpg |
Re: scout body builds Man Ferp, that looks great! Great job on the styrene work! Makes me want to pick one of the cheap Scout bodies up and try my hand at styrene!:) |
Re: scout body builds Quote:
i have 1 more top to build then ill move on to painting the gen8 body for the full top look and build a interior for it i probably wont run it as much i also though about building another gen8 to go with the body but that would be down the road alittle |
