Military based Mog
 
My Military based "MSV" Mobile Service Vehicle..a fictional creation..still working on lights front bumper/winch mount and snow plow..
Snow plow will use the frt "brike" as a mounting point hence the reason I havent cut it out. Crappy phone pic..will try and post clear and outside pics in the next day or so.

Awesome rig man! Have you considered getting the military scale tyres from RC4WD?

Thanks for the reply..I looked at the tires but I really like the outcroppers..the one on the back is from a new set of 4 tamiya hilux tires off ebay I got a good deal on..yet to come is lights..make a frt bumper/winch mount and a snow plow..
I got the CC01 off craigslist super cheap with all the bearings and all assembled had never seen the outside..took it apart and went through it...
wanted something different. All the acc in the back I made myself using tips from this and other forumns..Fuel Tank/genset/welder/toolbox etc
Rear bumper is 1/2 in acrylic with a pin hitcha and drilled for lightsm most of the scratch built stuff is styrene or brass. Hope fully get better pics of soon..Thanks agaian for the reply!

Looking good mate, you've really got a talent for scale accessories. That little air compressor is cool as hell.
