Here is a comparison to show you how small the body is

bluriot · 07-13-2005, 04:49 PM

ok these are a little older, I recently remoounted the body and it makes it more scale

The chassis is a shortened kyosho tracker

bluriot · 07-13-2005, 04:50 PM

Ok I got some new pics today tell me what you guys think, and by the way the chassis is a kyosho tracker

Where are the body mounts!?

Body Mounts, where!?

Articulation

Crickey!! what a beuty it's a wild lion!!

OOOh They're goin' at it! Crickey!

zebra stripes. looked great on my 1:1 Scout til it rusted so bad the body fell off

JohnRobHolmes · 07-13-2005, 07:47 PM

it looks like a Barbie safari jeep to me. i hope you had as much fun cleaning it as you did messing it up as a child. i burned army men, i dont suppose i could fix those.

Madkoifish · 07-14-2005, 12:44 AM

Dunno if any paint would stick to those oily plastics. maybe a laqure based one would etch it enough to hold.

JakeTheAlligatorMan · 07-14-2005, 12:48 AM

You should beat that thing with a Hammer, and find out how tough it really is!

I second that vote!!! hmmm. where did i put the ol shotty? bwaahaaa. Ya know i am not one to insult anyone and i dont mean to, BUT, im kinda wondering why on earth you would waste your time with something like that... I mean come on a barbie jeep?? I suppose it could look ok if ya painted it in a different color but to restore it in pink and white???? wtf!!! lol. Actually i guess the only circumstance (sp?) would be if you were building for your little girl...then ok thats cool but if its for your own pleasure....lol

...I dont know man...maybe its tooo late and im just not getting it???

bluriot · 07-15-2005, 10:03 PM

Well, guys nearly done, just the paint and some other stuff so please tell me what you guys think of it!

Trust me man it will be painted, and moon buggy the reason for the posts so close to each other is because I had this on another forum, and I thought I'd share it with you guys, but anyway back to the point I took it out for a spin yesterday and the wheelbase is so short that tis thing can throw wheelies with a stock motor

XCUTIONER · 07-16-2005, 05:19 PM
