Toyota Hilux(Hot DNA)

Hi guys,

After my Civic Type-R I needed a quick build. It's the Toyota Hilux from Aoshima. I build it box-stock, even the color came with the plan. Normally I'm not in to white, but this time it fits the car really well(but that's my opinion). Excuse me if the pics arn't ok, I'm still testing my new camera(Yep, Santa has already passed by :lol: )

Thx for watching.

That truck looks clean!!
You really did a nice job on this one. I was wondering if you could show (or describe) how the bed cover is attached (hinged). I am scratch building one right now and I am undecided between two methods I have come up with.
thnx,
Steve

That's low :eek:

Very good job, hope to see it in real soon ;)

Really shiny paint :)
That's box-stock? So it came as a low-rider kit?

Hey,

BUST A 3 WHEEL FOR US! :) good work!

Lovely! Sooo low! :smokin:

I hate trucks like that, but excellent job.

Slammed! I like it! Is that the kit with the poseable "hydraulics?" You should snap a fe pics of it posin', if it is. Great work there, man.

Nice I can't wait to get another done, they are so easy to build! Looks great, quality work!

Ill try to explain, hope you understand what I mean. The bedcover has a small pin on the outside, so it fits in the small holl in the sidepanels.

That's low :eek:

Very good job, hope to see it in real soon ;)

I guess you mean at Jabbeke? Don't know yet, probably be there but only to see your freekin VW's and to buy some stuff.......a lot of stuff :icon16:

Really shiny paint :)

Yep, that's box-stock. Couldn't believe it myself when I first saw this kit. So it did came as a slammer. :iceslolan My brother has build the 2nd version of it.

Yes, I'm European..........if Belgium belongs to Europe..... :biggrin:
The Pro Rider shop is awesome, don't you think? Some really cool stuff they've got.

Wouldn't speek of hydraulics....but the car can "dance" if that's what you mean.

Nice I can't wait to get another done, they are so easy to build! Looks great, quality work!

Easy as 1 - 2 - 3!! Click-click-click. And still a decent kit. That's Aoshima quality!

Sweet...makes me want to start building mine now!!

Can't wait to see your's done!! Start it right now...go...go..go!! :evillol:


Thanx for the comments guys! Did'nt expect so many, this kit has been build so many times. Thx again!!

(Sorry, I replyd at the wrong quote :screwy: )

"has a small pin"
is this a metal pin in the plastic bed cover or a "pin" made out of plastic??
possible pic of the hinge??

The pin is moulded on to the bedcover. Would like to show you a pic but you can't see the "hinge" anymore. Sorry :shakehead

looks good man! Is that a Homie i spy? :icon16:

i think he means with the pin and hole on the bedcover is that it works kind of like a kids toy. Where the pin is molded coming off of the bed cover and molded holes at the end of the bed. I dont know if you can visualize the connection but its pretty simple

Great work.Nice to see some trucks.

That is how I made mine. I am kind of stuck on how to get it in the bed. I have the holes drilled in the bed rails, and have styrene rod sticking out of the sides (pins) of the bed cover but I don't want to break the pins off getting it in the hole?!? I think I am going to trim the pin so it is only very small (more like a nub then a pin) then see if that works. Very nice truck & thanks for the response!!

Yep, that's what I mean! And yes, that's a Homie from Hoppin Hydro's :iceslolan. It comes in a set with 5 others. Nice stuff, nicely detailed.

yeah belgium is european,i never went to the pro rider shop but i know some guys from it through french lowrider forum,but i saw a lot of there car in magazines and internet and i think that it is the most californian shop in europe and i hope to have the honor to work with them for some parts on my futures 1/1 projects,

waiting for your future project(don't know what it would be but the qulity will be there,i'm sure!!)

That looks cool as ever!! I might have to build me one someday!! Great build!!

That's Nice! Now That I've Seen Yours,I Really Can't Wait For Mine To Get Here From HLJ!. Hope We Can Get a Meet Going For These Trucks!

so do we get to see it "dance"?
