|  Parma J-10 Honcho on cc01?
Does anyone have pics or know how well the Parma Honcho fits width wise on a cc01? I just picked a cc01 up and am looking for a body I havent seen any one else use. Thanks! |

Last person I saw use the Parma Honcho body was Diggler back in 2006. Being of rare sorts and all, ya might reconsider.

The wheelbase is 254mm, it'll take a little bit of tinkering but you can make it work. I'd like to see it, but you may get people complaining about an IFS on a Jeep.

Anyway.. I can't recall seeing a full-size Jeep with IFS. Me, I'd use a body that fits the chassis design. | |

Rumor has it that the next generation Wrangler's going to have IFS/IRS/Both. Word has it that designers at SEMA said they'd reached the apex of solid axle technology in the JK.

Yeah I figured Id catch grief on the ifs on a Jeep, but I want to build something somewhat close to my 1.1 78 Cherokee so I figured Id use my new cc01. And as for ifs/irs on a Wrangler.. FAIL.  |

 IMO the new JK's are too damn fancy, give me back my old CJ! Back to the original question, I was thinking the Honcho would look good on a SCX frame, might do it. If you want a body that is Jeep that fits the CC01, I found that the RJ Speed CJ-8 fits perfect! Same problem as before since Scramblers didn't have IFS. | |

And then you see this commercial.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Q0W3XNUyUI How often do you think that Jeep goes offroad? That commercial right there should be the end of the "It's not a Jeep so it sucks" crap. Lol. | |

'78 Cherokee, eh? My daily driver is a '77 Cherokee with a 401 / 4 spd riding on 33's. Also a '77 Waggy w/401, '78 Waggy w/360, and...and...and...blah blah blah Currently working on a deal for a spotless J10, but negotiations have stalled. Just ordered up a parma Honcho body a few minutes ago, so I'm looking for some pictures of one done up in a (even pseudo-) scaler fashion. | |

I fully realize this is a total necro job...but I finally have a J10 to model a semi-scaler on... '77 J10 Golden Eagle found it's way into my evil grasp!  |
