Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

Were you running the IROKS in that last vid? Looks like they clear pretty good if they were.

Good eye, I cut just a little. I'll post some more pics soon. I'm bobbing the tail and getting the driver in.

Looks great Rick, your driver is the crowning touch and that little hat is too much. "thumbsup"

Thanks Norm, Hobby Lobby has got all kinds of stuff and I'm always on the look, I got family bringing me stuff all the time thinking I could use it.:ror:

Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

I did a real simple floorboard just to keep my driver a little cleaner. I put velcro on the back of the dash and I bent a lip so it would clip it the bottom of the seat. Easy to take in and out when I need to.

Must have been a bad accident. Thankfully he found both his legs, must have sucked driving himself to the ER though! Hope the Docs can patch him up. "thumbsup"

Nice floor. I was going to tie mine in with the dash mounting screws... If I ever get to it..

OK, here's the story on the legs.
My mother inlaw saw the driver I was making, she asked why I cut his legs off. I told he the truck didn't really have a floor board and that was why.
She said, then you should put fake legs in the seat next to him. I thought it would be funny so I did. She got a big kick out of it.:ror:

It took a whole 10 mins to make. :ror:

I sure like the way it looks.:mrgreen:

Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

I put my Driver in the truck and then I took this picture. From this angle he looks like he's a tweeker or scared shitless. I didn't like his eyes so I had to take him back out and touch them up. :ror:

Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

What the hell, he's a disabled person, right on. "thumbsup" He needs a couple more things like a dog outside the cab riding on the mirror brackets a handicap parking permit and a set of crutches or a cane.

I have been looking for the dog, and I was going to do some crutches. I forgot the handicap permit. "thumbsup"
I thought you might get a kick out of that. I have a buddy around the corner that really liked it.;-)

Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

I put a longer shackle and a longer shock on the front. Also cut the front of the body to match the bumper. Detailed the grill a little too.

Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

Wow...it that clay I am assuming?

You have talent. Wanna make me one? I think you have a picture of me....

This is the 1st time I have ever done one of someone else. I wish you would have gave me a couple more pics. This is the best I could do.

Re: Rockedup Ricky's RC4WD Trailfinder 2

That is damn close of John, nice work

Just needs a toyota emblem on the grill and the front grill will be real nice.

Did you do the camo by hand or with stencils?

Thanks, I never meet John, the pic was all I had to go with.
I'll have to get me an emblem."thumbsup"
I sprayed the whole truck flat black. Then free handed the rest. Makes it nice for touch up.;-)
