I wish I could tell you I made it. One of the other local guys made it. He started with a tamiya toyota hilux body, filled or sanded off all the body lines, fenders, grill, etc and built new ones from scratch. Check out scale4x4rc(dot)org for the T-Rex 60's build thread in the Top Builds sub forum for a detailed and photographed docomentation of the whole thing.
the second is a 84 toyota 4runner and is not available anywhere. That was a one-off hand made body. 4 Months of work on that one.
The first is my toyota. The body is from a Tamiya Hilux kit, but I hand made it into a crew cab. the third truck, the tan/black one, is also same Tamiya kit. Available online or at yoru local hobby store if they carry electric trucks.
Those particular JK's are both custom chassis. The one with the black/chrome wheels is a Diaz chassis (thats Diaz's truck) and the other is a self made cnc aluminum chassis. The bodies are from a 1:8 scale New Bright Jeep toy available at Target, ToysRus, Wal-mart, etc.
its a great place and if you're close enough you should try to make it out once at least, just to see it in person. A couple of regulars drive about 100+ minutes to get here. Most are at least an hour away.
you can't. You'd have to make it. This was practically made from scratch. It started as a hilux (toyota) body but wrong year so all the details had to be redone correctly.
These RCs rock the rock! Great work all around.
