So I got another one....2 door, 3 linked front and rear, and more. I need to go wheeling!

Sweet. :D

FWIW seeing the front of that, along with a rock this weekend I am reminded I need to fab up some splash plates and brackets for my bumper corners.

What electrics are you using for it? Gun handle and wheel or double toggle box?

Awesome! Looks great!

What are the plans for the 3rd gen?

It's a parking spot for the 2nd-Gen? :D

ROFL...wow....I didn't even realize this was a model. All this heat must be cooking my brain. I didn't even notice it was sitting on the hood of the 3rd gen.

Just ignore my comments. :tapedshut:

Look closer guys, I think he must've imported that 2nd-Gen because it's a right hand drive as shown by how the windshield wipers are laying. ;)

I like how the pin mounts for the lexan body actually look like the windshield squirters without the pin-clips in them. Who did the paint and scale parts on it for you?

Here's a 1st-Gen. :D

Here's how the Kyosho bodies used to look: Kyosho 4Runner 1/9 RC - 17 years later (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wF1hLAn5Hc#)

It is pretty cool..I bought the body as you see it off an r/c forum. I am running a brushless system in it that gives it way more wheel speed than a crawler, but still alows for smooth torquey low speed crawling. I run lipo batteries that give me about 2 hours run time on each one.
