Super! Looks like TLC 80! Good work. Do you have video?

I love the grey color! I would also like to see a video of it driving.

Sorry, no video. :sceptic: Too busy with school, and I really want to get working on the Triple Build contest.

Wow, that is really nice! If you don't mind me asking, what stabilizes the front windshield liftarm beams? This looks like a great build.

There's nothing stabilizing them on the top, but on the bottom they're connected to a cross block that goes down to the chassis.

Great stuff, Vic. Would love to see instructions for this, one day. I'd build it in Orange. :D

I think instructions would take a bit too much time... :wink:

I like how the tyres looks used and a bit beat up, I think this is a stunning model. And if you're in the triple build contest, I don't think I'll bother :laugh:

Great model. How long did it take to build and did you design it out first?

I build with no design process -- the whole thing is on-the-fly. That's not to say I don't make mistakes :wink: . It took me about a month to complete the entire project, maybe a little more.

I only ask because that's the way I build.

Looks very nice! Does it have good off road performance?

I didn't get to test it ouside because of weather, but it does drive over blankets quite well :)
