Scoob - Monte 05'

With all of the modifying I have been doing lately I needed an OOB break. I have been wanting to do this Scoob for a long time - actually over a year. So I figured that I would and I would not look at a single reference picture or other persons build. All I want is to complete 2 models in one year. I started on Monday and have had all week to work on it. Here is what I have done.

I know this is a street rally car, but I wanted it lower. I know that Tamiya used there 03' and up kit for this. Oh well, I fixed that with a little drilling and aluminum. I lowered it 1mm overall.

Here is the wonderful flat white painting, lol.


Here are the rear driveshafts with some BMF and detailing.

How it sat to this point.

Re: Scoob - Monte 05'

Here is the rear diff.

Like the drive shaft?

Rear caliper and rotor with weathering.

Wheels before advertising stickers.

After.

Wheels on chassis.



Body on. You can easily tell I dropped this beast. Looks great as there is no rear rake and the front still has tons of travel per rally specs (my rally specs).





Body will be brought closer after final assembly.

Re: Scoob - Monte 05'

Hi, just to let you know, when I built my model of this version, the final fit after installing the roll cage was horrible it was very hard to even fit the car to the exterior
