G-FORCE RC4WD Scale Build off entry "ST8OFKANVAS"

Like the interior, creative and it looks good. Would want one on a real rig.

Thank you sir!

Took advantage of the above average temperature and unusual calm day for Kansas and layed some paint down. Settled on Rust-oleum Gloss Dark Gray Painters Touch Ultra Cover. Yes Dark Gray is the official color. Its just what I was looking for. Next will be to install the windshield, canvas, lights, body accessories, build metal sliders and build metal rear bumper. Oh and install the links (if they ever show up )

Gettin closer.

Parts list updated. Had to alter original plans to assure completion by the deadline date.
Working on the rear bumper and ragtop this weekend.

 

[G-FORCE]

Finishing up on the metal bumper. 1/2 in square tubing and 3/8 in strap and a small amount of body filler did the trick. All the angles were a pain in the rear.

On to the ragtop.

 

[G-FORCE]

Ragtop complete. That was a task. Hand sewn. Let me know what ya think.

To do list.

#1. Install body accessories.
#2. Finish links (waiting on 91mm links).
#3. Install new tire/rim combo when they arrive
#4. Final installation of electronics
#5. Install winch
#6. Crap ....just remembered spare tire
#7. Build metal sliders.
