    My New Defender

    I've been building this from the ground up.
    So far I'm very happy with it, these pics are on it's first outing.

    Hand that man a banana!!
    You are right, it is an environmentally freindly electric version.

    1/8 scale, the body came from a cheap toy on ebay, toy was crap but body is very nice!
    The hardware has taken a lot of finding to get the right scale and I have had to go high end for most of it.
    The chassis is still radiata (it's easier to scrap and start again than aluminium) and I need a radio but that will see it up and running except for some bar work.

    Yes I don't know what happened with the pics but it helped with the deception so I left them that way.
