Gaz! Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 That’s a definite jeep like shape..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoat_Muldoon Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Going by the shape and proportions of the body my bet is a 2nd gen/squarebody Chevrolet K5 Blazer, or at least a fictionalized one. The truck on the right seems light it has the front brush guard and antenna from the M1009 CUCV If thats the case, sign me up! Would be a nice deviation from the Jeep-spam we've had for years now, as cool as Jeeps are the market is getting a bit saturated with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone-wolf Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Hmm, if its another Jeep based shell then count me out, i would of thought the companies might start making scale models based on newer kit like dodge ram or F-250, chevvy suburban, that kinda stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Thursday to Tuesday - Shortest tease ever ? 🤟 Two kits on the way 🥳 Edited September 29, 2020 by TWINSET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWINSET Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Forward mount motor, pretty much all new chassis layout Overdriven axle option, anti twist outputs as per BOM 1:1, 1.14:1 and 1.22:1 overdrive although 1.14 is referred to as 'stock' so not sure if the others are included or sold as options (1:1 and 1.22:1 have their own part numbers) Military option has bull bars, civilian includes roof rack 2 speed tran, and it looks like they've moved away from 'gaping hole in gearbox housing' to a push rod through the end 👍👍👍 Chassis mounted servo and panhard bar Standard axles (no portals) Pre-order available now: $319 Military, $349 Civilian + $54 shipping, ships 16/10 Import fees a distinct possibility also! Not sure of justication of price difference, Mil kit has slightly smaller tyres (108mm OD v 121mm on Civ) and Civ kit includes roof rack Usual metal balls for as pre-order bonus Update: Manuals are online now too; Civilian Military As well as confirming no LEDs are included on the Civ version, it looks clearer here that 1:1 and 1.22:1 overdrive alternatives are (buyable) options Edited September 29, 2020 by TWINSET 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddyroo Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Liking the civilian version a lot - nice to see something a little different bodywise finally! Be interested to see how much these end up going for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DartmoorTrails Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Do you think it possible to fit an interior (proper one) if the battery moved somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone-wolf Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Must admit i rather like the look of the bronco style one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoat_Muldoon Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Wahey, I was right. It is a K5 Blazer the M1009 inspired one is super nice, hope that antenna can be unhooked so it waggles around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 2 stock battery placement options, one kinda under the front seats and and one under the rear seats Edited October 3, 2020 by TWINSET 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
