I made a fuel tank and out board motor for it today .......

Then I made a new grille for the Ranger and I really like the new look..."thumbsup"

Well still waiting but I made some gear for the tinny I made a water tank, fish in a crate, fish net, 2x fishing rods, takle box and a landing net ....."thumbsup"

Now I will just have to wait patiently for the micros to arrive.......

:lmao::lmao:Thanks mate....."thumbsup"
Well I found a micro in Sydney yesty and grabbed it to get this build finished ..........:mrgreen: I got it home and didn't even have a crack I just ripped her straight to bits ..."thumbsup" I started with the chassic rails and got nice bends stright up.

I wacked the front end back inn STD and then lengthend the links with styrene tube to suit the wheel base along with the rear tailshaft........"thumbsup"

It all came together nice and it is quiet fun to work on here is an under shot

At this stage I had to leave the battery up top but will try and move it down onto the rear axle later. I am goin to make some steel bead locks for wheel weights and this should help the stability a lot........."thumbsup"

Had a little test to day and shes getting there. The std battery is frustrating as you get about 5-6mins run time when working over the rocks .... So this will be thrown over my sholder soon .....:ror: and replaced other then that they are great !!!! More pics soon ....Cheers

Coming along very nicely. Can't wait to see it as it all comes together.

 

[kenworthit]

I am pretty happy with her .....

I PULLED HER DOWN TONIGHT AND THROUGH A LICK OF PAINT ON HER & THE ROK LOX.....:mrgreen:

I am running no springs in the front and cut springs in the rear as it was unstable with the front springs in and seems to be ok now . I will go see my mate next week and get some steel beadlocks cut out to act as wheel weights which will also help. Lipo battery and we be rockin ......"thumbsup"
Thanks to those who have show an interest in this build , I appreciate your comments .....
Cheers ....."thumbsup"

Hey man can u pm the measurements for the scale chassis pieces

 

[Big Mike]

The tubework looks great painted orange. Nice work.

That is a bad-ass little Ford. That body worked out really well.

I can't believe all the little accessories you've scratch-built. You've obviously got a good imagination and the ability to see a part "hiding" inside a piece of raw material. Excellent stuff man...
