Finished: Pathfinder on 38s

I only have three tires because the fourth is a spare on the ultimate taco. A full set will be ordered after christmas so i'll have two spares on this one. Kit is the Aoshima Terreno lowrider. Sorry for the poor pictures-have to use a video camera.

Wow! That is cooL!!! The bent up liscence plate is a nice touch! The first picture looks real,with the other car in the back and the ferrari! :smokin: Looks like its in a shop! Great model!

Sweet!! That's a different take on that kit and it works!!:)

Awesome. I love the roof rack and your work on the underside is perfect. More fantastic trucks from you! That Jeep is going to be mad sweet!

kick ass how is it capable of rock hopping when the wheel wells are so close.

gime me so more of that jeep

Whoa! You're like the off-road god! :biggrin:

That is what i am unhappy with. Here's the story: My plan was to use 33 to 35" tires, so that's what i build the suspension to, but then i "accidentally" held up a 38 and decided i needed them, so i trimmed to fenders for clearence, but could go anymore.

Thanks for the kind words all.

P.S. "anti-jeep" is having some trouble with creating parts/assembling/painting order, but it will get done eventually.

that thing is a beast, i like the plate

Awsome work!

Sweet build! I like it! And your next projject looks very promising.

Hi,

modell looks very good with all those details like bent license-plate, weathering, ...

I´m looking forward for your Jeep project.
