- I don't mind the bush guard on the front, it does help protect the nice Toyota body. But I do like taking it off for that scale look. :) wouldn't you agree??
I posted in another thread about lowering the body.... i'll check back to this one, however I do wanna know how to do it.... clean :)

I love building my own custom trucks as anyone.... But I love this truck, nothing like 3 speeds of mayhem.

Tamiya didn't really think this kit out. I think it's one of the worst looking and performing scale kits out there. They require a lot of work in order to be a good scale truck. I'm still not very happy with mine. Why are all RC solid axles so wide? There's not enough 1/8 bodies to choose from. I'm glad to see you didn't go all out with those ugly yellow lenses. In my opinion, these bodies look much better with the clear ones. Every truck has it's character though, and I've always been fond of those brown Hilux's. Lovely truck!

Even though under tough option, thank you for the kind words and compliment. I too thought brown bronze would keep the truck scale rather than paint it like a stupid yellow or something. Thanks again, can't wait to finish the video.

Ps. I hate those yellow lenses LOL

Cheers
