My SCX-10 Project

[hamz9561]

I've finally gotten this project to where I feel comfortable sharing it with my buds here. I've got some accessories on it and I've got the lights working. I still need to do some more detailing, but all in good time.

This is kind of a tribute to the 2007 JK my dad and I were building before he died.

I'll try and get some lighted pics after dark.

Edit: This is also a 100% rattle can paint job.

Looking good Hamz. If I replace my sc truck tires any time soon I'll give you one of the old ones, they are Flat Iron look alikes so you could have a matching spare.

Man thats pretty sweet man, wish I coulda watched the process. Dont be un-comfortable here, cmmmooooonnnn.

Thanks, Lloyd. I'm going to get my sister to sew a cover for the spare like I had on my 1:1 JK that this is modeled after.

The paint job is nothing special, just rattle cans. I'll get some pictures of my lights on the inside of the lid later on.

Nice job. Its always great when you can do a tribute build just because of the memories they represent.

Very nice! I'd love to see pics of how you did the lights on the body, all I have is lights in the bumpers on mine.

More parts on order from RC4WD:

King Kong Shackles
Tough Armor Bumper/Spare Tire Carrier
Yellow Tie-down straps

They've been shipped and should be here by the weekend. Looking forward to doing some more work on the rig.

Sweet, can't wait to see! Do you have Prolines floor-pan under your body? The 2nd pic I can't see through the front wells.

 

[hamz9561]

No under-body floor pan, just the Pro-Line JK shell. I'm thinking of building some plastic ones from scratch unless I can find some that I can bash into this kit.

 

[hamz9561]

They're here! Got all of the parts in!
Now if I csn stop piddling with the new 1:1 I might get some time to install them.

You got the rear end lifted up any?

Great looking Jeep Hamz, keep the progress pics coming!

 

[hamz9561]

Got the bumper, rock sliders and steering relocation kit installed as well as some other goodies on it. I'm just waiting on the Shoe-Goo that's holding some of the light wires in place to dry before I can get some pics of the inside of the shell to show how I installed the lights.

I run those sliders on my SCX and man they are sweeeeeet!! If your a weetard like me, and am no further than 12" from rig to my nose it almost sounds 1:1 when they hit rocks and shhtuff!

Awesome looking trail truck, this is a fact.

 

[hamz9561]

Thanks, I need to get some pictures of it with the shell back on it and all of the lights lit again.

 

[HPI-Killer]

And on some trails or gettin dirty!

 

[hamz9561]

Let me see what I can do....

Here are the latest daylight pics. I just finished mounting the Rampage bumper and shackles from RC4WD. I've got some work to do to get the lights working on it again.
