green bronco

[bvrc]

Over the past month or so I've been collecting parts from the ebays. Over the past week I put together my first scx10. I won't bore you with the details of the build. I just wanted to share some pics with fellow scx'ers.

I still have quite a lot to do on the bronco. I'm messing around with an interior and an axial NVS led kit. Also, I recently got the supplies an materials to try and braze some stuff... The bronco needs a better front bumper and some metal sliders for sure. Those are going to be my first brazing projects =)

I've been able to put a pack through the bronco and I'm pretty happy with it's abilities so far. It's a good addition to the fleet.

I like the way the rest bumper wraps around for protection. What tires are you running?

Looks great. Really like the rear bumper.

Thanks man! Like I said it's a work in progress, but I'm happy so far.

Yeah I like the rear RC4wd bumper =)
The tires are RC4wd 1.9 baja claws. I'm happy with the scale-ness of them, but I hope they break in a little bit. They are a bit stiff. I may just need to trim the foams more.

Thanks! Yeah I am very pleased with the rear end.

Nice truck, I really like the stance it has. Nice job on the bumper too; I can't wait to get in to that part of my build.

 

[bvrc]

built back up. All waterproof to the best of my abilities. Changed the gearing a bit. The hitch works pretty well with the trailer "thumbsup"

This body is a radio shack mangler bronco that has been highly modified. I have a orignal mangler still.
