| description | Back story: Grayson Hunt, the infamous badlands hunter, is digging his new ride. He especially likes these new Gear Head aluminum wheels, which he hijacked off of a Sand Pirate. In the badlands, a guy like Grayson needs a tough truck, and he thinks this one will meet his needs.
About the project: This is my first-ever trail truck. As much as I love Tamiya, I've heard so many great things about the Axial SCX10 kits, I had to try one. I bought the Dingo kit, which was a lot of fun to build, despite the periodic instruction oddities.
Still lots to do on this one. It features an HPI 1979 Ford F150 body, AMAZING and expensive Gear Head 1.9 aluminum beadlocks, RC4wd Mud Country tires, Electrifly S-600 motor, Traxxas waterproof servo and an HPI waterproof brushed ESC. The rear cage is from an Associated SC8. The body cut lines need some tidying up before painting begins. Primary color will likely be yellow.

Great job, nice combination of parts and extra points for use of the SC8 rear cage,,, Look forward to seeing the paint job.
Cool truck and great work so far. This woudt be looking good when finished!
Thanks guys! Much appreciated. This has already been a fun project and looking forward to some more scale details and paint.
Wow! Thatīs a really great body for the Dingo indeed!!.. And just as I am trying to find out which body to put on my latest SCX. Think I got the answer now.
yeah, this is looking great so far.
I really like what I see here; the SCX10 chassis looks great, and that's a nice combination of body, cage, wheels, and tires to polish it off.
Awesome project !
