Well kids, it looks like we got most things buttoned up for the build.
Now...we have to decide, painted on the inside (so it stays nice and pretty) or out side (so it wears and tears like the real thing) ??

What would you like to see?

Default Axle Twisters Raffle Truck build

First off I'd like to thank everyone who has offered their help towards this project. Be it donations or labor, it's all appreciated.

So the parts are on their way, and I'm excited to start this project.

The truck
A Pro-line early 80's Chevy blazer.

The chassis/running gear
A SCX10 Axial Rock Crawler. Which I think will be one of most popular entry level kits to hit the market yet.

From there this blazer will see its share of modded and custom touches. Thanks to many generous vendors and individuals, this rig may get more miles on it just being built then most rigs ever get run.

Once the chassis is put together here at Axle Twisters head quarters, its off to Metal Fume Fabrication for some essential tubing work as every good truck should have.
From there its off to BrightEyez LED Lighting for a full LED light setup, another must for the true scale wheeler!
Once that's all said and done its back to Axle Twisters head quarters where paint and powder coating can be applied. And last but not least, final assembly including the all important, working winch from Ricks House "O" Stuff.

That isn't the whole build obviously! But hey this is a build thread and what fun would it be if I gave it ALL away in one shot?
You'll just have to stay tuned!

Got word on more cool stuff folks!
Looking like it's going to be a nice little rig. Also it's looking more and more like I'll be getting my wish of painting the outside of the body. I will leave the polls open for awhile yet, but its looking good.
Can't wait for someone to get this and start scratching it up!

Picked up what might be, I swear the last SCX10 in Canada today.
A special thanks to Avalon Hobbies.
