Scorcher Rover
g'day guys
Finally finished my Sand Rover on a Sand Scorcher chassis runner. Got sick of breaking the Sand Rover front shock mounts & getting sand in the gearbox so onto a SS chassis she went.
looks far more realistic with the VW type suspension anyway. Only tricks this time are removing the mounting tabs on the SS exhaust, having it chrome plated then mounting it directly to the rear cage. I think it looks neater.
hope u like the pics. Video to follow

Great action shots of a nicely built Manx. Pic #5 could be mistaken for a real car.

Wow. You've done it again Jak....starting out with something relatively ordinary, and crafting it into something very special. Well done.

Now that is cool! Just the right paint job transforms a cartoonish box art classic to stylz beach cruiser!

Strooth mate, thats a ripper. Have to build the dog one like this.
Excellent job, shame Tamiya don't put them out like this.

The balance of parts looks just right, I 'm planning something myself having ruined the original chassis. Great action shots.
