Ok I thought i would share this project finally !
In April I join a on line fourm that handles Mostly Lowriders ! And In the Hobby the Lowriders seem to be my strong point ! SO I spend alot of my time on Lay It Low .com to share the Lowriders i build ! Well every so often they have a on line contest to help everyone keep building ! Not to get serious about but its lots of fun ! Well from Nov 1st to Dec 31st we are haveing a truck build off !
Heres a Link ! http://www.layitlow.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=288380
Well i chose the Aroshima 4x4 dual cab Hilux ! But If any know me by now i put my own taste into it ! LOL!
I start with this !

That's pretty sweet, the sub housing and the amp rack/center console display piece are sick! That looks really good, nice job. Did you cast the subs or did you get them from someone?

So, this is how you create these. I knew you put alot of work into your models this shows it. Great job on the hinges, looking forward to more.

Are you going to mold the speakers/aand subs in on the rear deck at all? i noticed they were just kinda sitting on top. But great work, the body chop is excellent and great speed!

Amazing job. I think this has to be the most hinges I have ever seen on one model. Very eyecatching paint job you did. Fantastic model overall.

I like the looks of that paintjob, and the double cab long bed is great too. I'll have to get mine out sometime soon!!

Wow, that's alot of Bass...My uncle has one 8" square kicker in his car and it's more powerful then 2 12" regular subs... I can't even imagine what...how many is that, 8? Yeah, 8 square subs would be pretty crazy. The truck is looking great too.
