Well you guys its time for my scaler. Started this build a while back. It started out as a custom body out of insulation foam, but i quickly lost motivation. With the new release of the 88 Ramcharger body I couldnt resist going back to this build. Im basing this off my grandpas 77 dodge power wagon. This is also my future 1:1 so dont be suprised if I pull up to a comp in this thing when im 16 :lol: Posted Image Stupid inspectors ^_^ Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image The ramcharger body is 10 yrs older and will need some customization on grille, camper cut off, and adding a back windsheild, and a bed. Heres what I have to workwith. Wheely king axles Wheely king transmission Either the v3 chassis or a custom scale chassis Most likely leaf springs Fly wheel wheels that look just like the 1:1's Fly wheel tsl boggers I have no Idea on electronics yet, I was probably going to run my comp stuff In balloons and stuff for when I feel like going scale. Will have to be that way for a while, but not for long. I should have a real update as soon as I get a body and the tires. |

Thanks Chris. Making the rust, fake mud, and the rust on the rc body is going to be fun lol. I can't wait to start. Im going to call hobby town today and see if they have a ramcharger in stock. :D |

Lol, thats awesome!! Once I get gears for my R2 then it SHOULD be bullet proof.. could be the otherway around... Now onto the pics. I know its not red yet, and I know it doesnt have a grill. Posted Image Posted Image Chassis was made and touched up by eric. He basically built the thing Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image I think its cool that this body had lights in it, theres only one in the front though :) Posted Image |
