Got a nice little package in the mail today. Loving them big time and always nice with aluminium . Lot of time went to securing the 128 screws( 32 / wheel) . Need to unscrew them all later since i will be adding weights to them.

Added Alu crossmembers and HC links to it .

Also started on the interior.

2 pics of the progress so faar. The seats are just placed there to get an idea of the finnished interior. Dont really like the flat floor but will have to do for now

hi

really looks great

cyberdog · 08-28-2008, 01:48 PM

Done some more of the interior work. Still some things to do but getting there. Also going to put fabric on the floor and other, also install gear shifter, handbrake and steering wheel and some other small things.

Some nude photos of how its built. Atleast u can see some of it. Adding screws in the rear aswell so it gets even stronger.

How it looks with the seats almost at their right place.

cyberdog · 10-28-2008, 09:44 AM

Went crawling with a friend today. Not many pics and forgot to shoot video but anyways...

860Crawler · 10-28-2008, 11:28 AM

They were pretty cold crawling with no roof

cyberdog · 10-30-2008, 11:27 AM

Remembered i have 2 extra lights that i had on my 1/8 so deicided to try them out on the crawler. They werent in the best condition so deicided to polish them. Made a big difference.

Before

After

polished and not

Mounted on the car

Will make the mount properly later but wanted to try them out so made a quick solution.
No glass/lens on the lights atm but will make new ones soon. Will also polish them some more for even better reflection.

HERE is a vid of them

HeHe yeah. If u look closely u can even see that there is ice on the front window

cyberdog · 10-31-2008, 10:22 AM

Since its snow outside and i dont always have the strength to plow the yard so i can drive around i thought why not make a plow

So i did. Isnt complete yet since i still need to make the thing that makes the plow raise when i go into reverse ( yeah i know i could use a servo as a winch to pull it up but want the 3rd chan for other things) . Gonna make small skii looking devices on the backside of the plow so it also floats better. Some screws are to long still but will be fixxed later along other stuff.

Anyways here are some pics.

cyberdog · 10-31-2008, 01:01 PM

HERE is a short vid with the plow in action.

cyberdog · 11-01-2008, 03:08 PM

Added a winch to the truck so i can lift/lower the plow. Used a weak old servo but will change that to a stronger one later. Video comming soon.

cyberdog · 11-01-2008, 03:23 PM

Now i added a winch to the car so i can raise/lower the plow. The winch is an old servo i modifyed. It will be moved to a place under the body later and will also change the wire to another one i have at home thats better.

HERE is the vid of the plow/winch

jadama · 11-01-2008, 05:05 PM
