So here's my Trail Stomper Hilux. Lots of TC Hiluxes are beaters so I thought I'd do something a little different and pimp mine up a bit. The paint is Toyota Magic Black metallic. It's got steel punisher shafts, soft red springs, a rubber boot for the motor & a splash box for the radio gear. It's not really finished. It is crying out for some inner wheel arches (not sure how to go about it so any advice would be great). An interior is also on the cards, which will mean moving the radio splash box. Getting the body & chassis to look like they came from the same kit has been a bit of a struggle but I think I've pulled it off.

Thanks to mcovalsk for the body & stickerbod for the plates and decals.

Your Hilux has turned out looking really good and scale like Basket Case. I currently have a very similar Trailfinder on my bench. I should find a set o those wheel arches as they marry up the big tyres perfectly! Well done!

Looks great, thin styrene makes great inner arches and you can bolt it to the chassis, or maybe the Pro-line undertray for the scx10 might be able to be trimmed and cut to fit
