1/10 Rock Crawlers????
Just wondering if anybody on here is in to the 1/10 scale Crawlers? I've had a couple of nitro trucks and I've been kicking around the idea of a Axial SCX10 Trail Honcho or a Buggy. I've been lurking the websites at some of the ones people have built and they are awesome with all the realistic accessories and components they have available. Even some of the pics look so real it makes you look twice to tell the difference. Any info or suggestions would be great. (Pics even better);)

Outside of the RC Nylint 4x4’s Wal-Mart was selling about 10 years ago I don’t have any experience with RC’s but I sure have a want for this thing! Been dropping a lot of hints to the wife for Christmas present ideas :lol:

I just checked out the Vaterra Blazer, I wonder if they offer it in a RTR kit? I really like a lot of the features it has especially how you can change the wheel base easy. I could even paint it up like the old '86 Blazer I used to have;)

Hello jeh,
1st off, Thank you for all the kind words. :) and if you get hooked, Welcome to your new addiction. Yes you spotted a hard body Toyota, actually I have 3 older Toyota Hilux's and a 4th one still in the box. There's also a Tundra in there. Have you looked on RC4WD's website, they have a couple Toyota's. This is the ready to run version. http://store.rc4wd.com/Trail-Finder-...et_p_3805.html I'm sometimes slow to answer, so, don't give up on me. :) . |

Its my own creation using axial scx10 chassis with a Tamiya highlift 3 spd transmission. Its a Frankenstein https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7052/...16414342_z.jpg This one is a 2012 RE- release of the original Toyota Bruiser that came out in the 80's https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7049/...c061bf2c_z.jpg This is another Frankenstein with the Toyota highlift body which is basically the same body on the Bruiser.. (confused yet, I was at first. :) ) https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2941/...c34ccda3_z.jpg https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3844/...f279d107_c.jpg And....

Very cool pics, after some research this evening and watching Youtube clips till my eyes bugged out, I think I have an idea. I was thinking of getting an Axial SCX10 and putting a Tamiya Toyota hard cab on it and leaving the tube flatbed on, kind of the "truggy" look. Of course some faded paint and a set of white spoke wheels;)
