I've been asked if I could make the files for the bodywork available for free and I will but they are not so useful without something to hang them on , the front parts only need something simple under them as the frame is mostly unseen but the rear frame is much more visible .

Yay ! Lonestar your on your way

I meant no disrespect to either Lonestar or the Hunter ,Its great that it can be restored and recorded as an early part or the off road RC story , i really want a Samurai even though i'd have to resist the urge to drive it ...... not sure i could resist it though

Glad you got it fixed, sorry I couldn't help.

The file works Its going on Thingiverse now .

Thanks people its never an easy contest and i had some serious competition , good luck everybody next month !
