They are lots of fun. My mate who sponsors my 40, bought and built one up. Painted it in the same colours as mine, except mine is now a soft top. Even got a gurnsey when we did the 4wd action dvd.

That is really cool, love it! But do you have a life size version???
How custom is all that? Has someone made up all that pipe work and slider stuff out of plastic tube or something? Really intricate stuff. Very impressed.

All the ones pictured, i have built. The green 45 is my brothers, the chev is my 1.9 scale truck ( not in real life...) and the brown one is for a mate.
All the bar work is built from 3/16 brake line all silver solderd to gether, I have a 2.2 Winch challenge truck, and 2.2 comp crawler and even the missers has a long wheel base suziki Searria....it had to pink though. The work that gos into the bar work would be round 40 to 60 hours work from start to finsh.
