Finished... finally... This is my first body I have done... its not crazy but I really love it. I was inspired to do black and orange because of my dads 75 ford Ranchero that he bought off the show room floor before I was even born. The colors? You guessed it. Black with two orange stripes up the middle and one orange stripe on the each side along the door panels. =)


Whatdya think?

Now I just need to punch the holes in the body and I'm kind of afraid because as you can see in the picture for it to fit perfectly the body would need to be about 1-2 inchs longer... So the front posts are going to be very ... tight... I dont know how I'm going to do it yet... really afraid of messing the whole thing up. Any tips would be appricated. I do have the Proline extended arms but it looks really goofy if I raise it up.

Thanks!
 
is it me or is that yellow? In the bottom pic it looks orange and the top it looks yellow?
 
That is what has concerned me about this body since it came out, I thought it was cool and wanted one for my Revo but wasn't sure if it would fit over my cage and it didn't look long enough. It looks cool though if you get it mounted and cut.
 
Really looks yellow to me. Either way, looks nice and clean. I really dig the look of a bug body on MT's. Kind of looks like it could be a hair longer, but looks cool anyway.
 
i was just wondering.. did you buy the 2.5r baja bug body?? because they make two, and the 3.3 is about an inch or two longer...
