Default Blue collar 4WDS

We have been talking over the last few days about doing a different kind of series for our outings.

The idea is to build a scale stock 4x4 as close to the real thing as possible and do upgrades over time in much the same way the average working man would do them. Kinda a paycheck to paycheck build.

Starter rigs would be what ever the builder chooses and would have to be ''stock'' tires, no lift and stock styled power. Then over time guys wold get to upgrade their rigs a little bit at a time.

We figured this would bring out some nice detailed builds along with making the trail days that much more interesting. It also gives a look at how each mod helps the capability of the rig off road.

Well gentlemen..... Time to start the blue collar builds.

I'm mocking up now to see what I will run now. I think we may have to setup a meeting this weekend to discuss the rules. Hows Sunday sound?

I'm kind of curious to see how this turns out, it will be cool to see "stock" trucks go from stock to weekend warrior trail rigs.
