Fly In My Soup Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) Well up for sale is the ford f350 crawler build in 1:6 scale I'm sure for most regulars this doesn't need the introduction! But for everyone's benefit here's the eBay description This was originally built for my children, who's interest has sadly wained somewhat over the past month or so.... So decided to get some money back out of it to fund other thingsThis took just under 4 months to complete!! This is a chassis completely built from scratch and has some unique features.... Chassis rails had to be custom made from a place up in north of uk - Made to order 5mm T6 aluminium plasma cut chassis rails - Custom made alloy 4 link setup - 2 x Custom made alloy pitman link with xmaxx alloy rose eyes - Full CNC helical gearbox - Venturi 600 brushed motor - Carbon chassis mounted servo plate - Extra speed fully locked alloy axles with alloy hardware, hex's etc etc - Alloy shock hoops + 100mm thin piggyback shocks for realistic looks and performance - Custom epic beadlock wheels with matching CC beadlocks - Austar tyres - Mtroniks 20a 2s ESC, I recommend upgrading to a 3s ESC . - Alloy centre transfer box - 2x 210mm full alloy heavyweight Hercules driveshafts - Custom made rear semi elliptical leaf springs with Hotchkiss style mount It will require your own servo, tx/rx to run Custom ford F350 body - 10 or more piece hardbody imported from usa - repainted with a tough, chip resistant metallic satin blue. - light kit at front ( some LEDs need replacing on the bumper, 3 ) - custom detailing in the engine bay - fully customized interior, one rear amp accessory missing - genuine suede bed cover - fold down rear bed - Fold out mirrors Hundreds of man hours went into is build , I had offers from as far as Canada to buy this truck or for me to build them one!! As with all custom projects, this was not made in a factory, so may require the new owner to tweak the rig to his liking, alter things etc etc Please note there will be a 4-5 day dispatch with this item, as its huge!! ******* ********** ********** *********** ********** PLEASE WATCH THESE VIDEOS BELOW SO YOU CAN GET AN DETAILED LOOK AT THE ITEM YOUR BUYING, PLEASE ALSO READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY/STUDY PICS BEFORE BIDDING Rather than upload a shedload of photos I will provide links here to copy and paste so you can view the entire build of the truck from start to finish on YouTube This is just some, there are loads more on the same YouTube cannel Body customization log; https://youtu.be/shfKhPZiN-s CHASSIS PICS GALORE IN THESE VIDEOS BELOW Build log videos; https://youtu.be/756Yl7ATLbU https://youtu.be/65ZaiuUf1p4 Running videos; https://youtu.be/3ojBYKF4yUs https://youtu.be/zGwykrcTi5o https://youtu.be/ITckZRFl1RU https://youtu.be/q-H4caS7_Nw im asking £299 + postage which I think is fair???????

Fly In My Soup Posted April 10, 2018 Author Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Bump Price is currently at £240 I just did a quick bit a crap maths Axles £130, body £50, 2x hercules d.shafts £58, gearbox £39, chassis rails £60 + del. In a way your actually getting this for a lot less than only 80% of the parts cost.... Edited April 10, 2018 by Fly In My Soup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
