Ralph Torres Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 I got this as a trade deal for a 1/6th scale Willys RC that will probably be converted to a model. Unfortunately not many were made and the ones that were made were in different scales. This one is 1/12 scale. I been doing body work and aligning the doors. This will a a nice tow rig for the trailer it came with..
RAT-T Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 LOOKS GOOD RALPH, IS THAT A RESIN OR A PRINTED BODY
Belugawrx Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Man that looks good,..I'm interested in who made this as well. Keep it going Ralph !

Only a very few were made and in different scales. I got it on a trade for a 1/6th Willys RC wich will be converted to a model.. not sure if it will ever be sold to the public.
Ralph Torres Posted March 19, 2020 Author Posted March 19, 2020 Ive been working on the bodywork and made some side moldings for it. It will be 2 tone color. Next up some door hinges .
drummerdad Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 Was this from 3d model specialties? I seem to remember them offering it in 1/12 for awhile, but now its gone. Were there problems with it or what?
Ralph Torres Posted March 20, 2020 Author Posted March 20, 2020 Yes but no problems or issues that im aware of.. its not a full kit with every single part. There is alot of scratch building needed so maybe that was a reason? I never really asked.
drummerdad Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Ill definitely be watching. I had my eye on this while it was up on 3d scale parts, Im just too busy spending money on about 4 other large scale kits, and two classic trucks. Way too many irons in the fire. I love those wheels also. Very nice.
Ralph Torres Posted March 24, 2020 Author Posted March 24, 2020 Worked on the C/10 today. Suspension work and body alignment. Suspension if functional..
Ralph Torres Posted April 13, 2020 Author Posted April 13, 2020 Update on the C/10.. i C- notched the frame and added a 4-link. The rods and ends are from RB motion. I also added disc brakes.
Ralph Torres Posted April 14, 2020 Author Posted April 14, 2020 Made some simple hinges out of brass.. still need to do the passenger side..
blackbeard Posted April 15, 2020 Posted April 15, 2020 Looking great craftsmanship, wish I knew the person was offering this body in different scales I would of bought one
