    Garetts other ride

    Well i started with my non patrol (so far) project. Built up some shocks and diffs yesterday, put some tyres on rims the day before. I spooled both diffs and went with beadlockers for the rims. Got some visitors coming this arvo so might not get much done today

    Pictures make it real
    As I lay there looking up, taking in the spectacular view that was the night sky and the multitude of stars I asked myself, where did my tent go?

    Now for the pretty bit. What colour to paint it?
    Its a sca-1e coyote. So old school ute.
    I'm thinking a dark blue metallic,
    Black is over done.

    Would love to get a gq body but they are pricey

    Looking good.

    I built a few buggies years ago. First one was a 1/8 scale 4wd nitro fuel. Did it all by myself as a 15 year old. Great fun.

    I did win a chassis for an axial stadium truck. That is meant to have an ifs setup considering making it one day but its not cheap.
