| Project Rust bucket
I acquired this beauty in a trade. Heh. Came with a Honcho cage/body. Needs a good teardown and cleaning but I'm happy to have a 3rd Ascender in the fleet. Not sure what wheels these are but I'm leaning knockoff. Also need to research what brand that front bumper is. Will be a good winter project. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

Was considering trying another custom body. Cardboard is cheap so I put together very rough mock up. Dakar rally truck-ish with a caged rear. Thoughts? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

New plan for the rust bucket. Managed to get lucky on my mystery box this Christmas and score a cruiser body. So, ordered a GCM relocation kit for the motor and trans. Will shorten to wb1 and try my hand at a hardbody build. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Last edited by OldNTired; 01-07-2018 at 06:20 PM. |

And the inspiration for this build. The one that I wish I could have back. My 64 Toyota Land Cruiser I drove in high school. Thing was a death trap and it's a miracle I survived driving this thing. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

Well, I finally decided to get started on the body. TS-33 Dull red came out nice. It's darker than it looks in the pic. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |

Did some interior work tonight. Pretty happy with how grimy this turned out. Big thanks to Imthatguy for the floor mat idea. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |
