That is some creative tube bending there. I like how the upper "windshield" tubes dip in the middle. The lines overall go great with the FJ body. This thing looks really cool so far. This would be a great candidate for a 2-speed transmission of some kind... Last edited by Big Mike; 10-19-2007 at 07:33 PM. |

How does the 1/18 size front clip of the body compare to say the normal 1/10 scale bodies? Is the tuber ultimately smaller? Where did you find that body anyway?

No real updates. Couldn't really do anything because i didn't have any link mounts. But i placed an order for some, aluminum knuckles, and steering servo. This thing should be a roller by the end of this weekend. I hope. Man i wish i could go back in time and re-weld this thing. Ive spent a few hours grinding and grinding, and haven't really got anywhere. Heres some pictures of some of the semi clean welds. Still have lots to do. This is the only thing i hate about building these. I love fabricating them but then comes the cleaning. O well, i hope it turns our ok.    |
