After a few crawlers and a few go fast rigs I decided to tackle my first hardbody. Took me quite awhile to figure out what I wanted to do, was looking at RC4WD kits but nothing really said to me "lets to it!". I was then turned onto a ebay merchant who sells a variety of hardbodies, my friend bought a hemtt truck. It was beautifully done so I found a unimog sold by the same merchant. Truth be told I wanted to do a progress build thread but now that I finally got around to posting... I have a lot done! There is alot of detailing I want to do as time goes on but what I have done so far is below. Chassis: Axial Deadbolt RTR Gmade Steel Wheels RC4WD Krypton Tires 1.9" Hitec 7955TG w/Castle BEC 6.0V (will be replace with Holmes Hobbies servo when funds allow) SSD Titanium Steering/Drag Links Axial 35T Motor (27 was too fast for this build) The 2 things I did different with the body was to remove the turret and also remove the stock turn signal/locations. To Be Completed: Install LED Lighting Install functioning tailgate Install Yellow Beacons Build/install full interior with figure Slowly upgrade chassis Please post up suggestions/thoughts, for being my first hardbody I think I did okay with it. Improvements could be made to my workmanship, at the same time though this wont be a show rig! Updates will be made along the way now EDIT: looks like some of my pictures rotated, if someone know how to fix this please PM me. They show right side up when viewing on my desktop...)
