Build Thread Willy’s 3rd scx24

[Doom!]

Agree with @WickedFog , this is your best so far! Really lookin' good.

Got the rims, servo, and mazzdesign links in today, no links on yet, but tonight probably. Really can’t wait to get done with this, the Menace is next. This was kinda just slap together, little trimming, the Menace will take some thought.

Looks like I may have to tweak the shock setup, sitting low in the back, This build was just too easy. And these setups are wide open way more space to fiddle with things. No wonder people like these. Climb like a spider, and easier to work on.

 

[WickedFog]

So just looking at your setup... is that C10 front links with Deadbolt rears?

 

[Willy0942]

Gladiator all around mazz designs will be the same

Fred the other scx24 I have, he does have that setup.

@Willy0942 This is by far my favorite of your rigs! I really love the look of that body.

I love that skid angle, the chassis and body just match up well. And was fairly easy build, almost too easy.

 

[WickedFog]

Very cool. I might have to mimic this build sometime.

Ok I meant to post this and didn’t realize I only posted the pics.

Trying to keep up with these new upgrades here, a Willy has been busy trying to kick off this YouTube adventure.
But put some new tires and wheels on Rock Block

Ok, that is really kewl! I don't care for the window visor thing but hey, it isn't my truck. Very neat build. That chassis looks 3d printed, was it purchased, or did you print it from purchased files?

the visor is iffy with me also maybe some screws and a painting, just didn’t like how the print was so bland in that area. And used other guys ideas of what they did. Would like to do something else with it. Any ideas?
The body is a 3d print, I bought off etsy, PrintHub, the dudes name was Brandon King he does well, Fred is from him also. They are both painted. I haven’t gotten a printer yet but plan on it in the future.

I went back to the beginning of this where you mentioned you purchased it. I should read before I ask dumb questions, oh well, I am the village idiot.
I would leave the visor off or maybe paint it either a black or the same color as the body. I don't see the blandness of that area; It's a great looking truck. I will also have to build something like this.
Willy style

I would like to do a cab only, with this body and chop the top make it lower and do a mad max theme, but that may be way out. I just got this morning a fcx24 unimog, for almost retail from 24yep. It was his mystery box truck from fms, and I have the javelina II body chassis I am working on. So a Willy will be busy with that for now.

What's the length on the front end? Are those also Gladiator? Links, drive shaft?

Yes full gladiator links, driveshafts, double bend mazz design links in rear, injora high clearance in the front.

This is still one of my favorites from your collection!
