Finishline's SCX-10 Ambush

[finishline]

Well after reading, driving and watching other people build theres it was time for me to get my own SCX. I pretty much built this rig on a budget and got less than $300 dollars into it. I have to say this rig came together great. I only had a couple minor issues that are fixable, and probably a error on my part not the kits. I am having a blast with this kit and have been working on it on and off for about two weeks now. I would like to thank Nluv for all the great ideas on his thread and Badger for letting me use his cake hole tan color.

the body mount idea is pretty cool. You gonna use velcro to mount it?

 

[finishline]

yeah used industrial strength velcro and it locked the body on those mounts pretty tight
