Can't decide on getting a pro line bronco body or the f250 cab for the honcho. The tig welder I have access to at work is ancient and I didn't do a good job welding for my first time.
I would really like to build a rear cage but want light aluminum. Don't want the weight of brake line tubing

Oh well, anyone use the short pro line bronco body?

The kid's truck is getting a needed face lift.

Bill, you'll like this............1966 Ford flat bed.






Got the floor panels all fitted.











The structure for the flat bed. Body will be held on by magnets.







Moved the shocks, not sure how they're going to work but it feels good on the bench.






The wood deck and the trimming. Needs to be stained and painted yet.







Still need to make the side rails too.

I got the long wheelbase Proline bronco body, but it wasn't going to fit. Currently waiting for the shorter one to come in. I'd be happy to take measurements and pics once I get it. Just let me know what you'd like to see.

Fit that shorter bronco body up with some bjgger1.9's. Let's see how it fits the scx10. If I remembdr correctly the shorter one is 12.3" wheelbase?

Super, the rigs are looking pretty sweet!

wrexo in mostly done,just gotta add electronics and different shoes and shes ready to go.scx axles weren't wide enough to go under it with out making it work so I scrapped that idea and went with the ar60s.found an 18.5 timbuk2 combo for a decent price and already had a solid servo,just gotta throw it in there and piss pound it till I find the weakest link.the factory exo body would be baller but it didn't come with one :( ..now Im debating on making a 4 wheel independent wraith with whats left from this build...
