I'm guessing for the same amout as the F-350?

If so, ouch

Is it just me, or does it look a little funky on that chassis? and dual exhaust on a "classic pickup"?

Still pretty sweet though.

AaronB,
Where you at buddy i will try and get some pics and start a posting of my own this weekend about my rig. I could maybe hook you up if you like the looks of my build. I am considering redoing it though.

AaronB · « **Reply #12 on:** Sep 22, 2007, 08:40:02 AM »

im in Tehachapi just south of Bakersfield

NT-OUTBACK · « **Reply #13 on:** Sep 22, 2007, 06:46:06 PM »

Sweet, but at the very same time disappointing, notice they used the same axles as the F350 and not the Toy axles that came with the Bruiser and Mountaineer. Built for maximum profit and not realism like the originals.

8D3TOY · « **Reply #14 on:** Sep 24, 2007, 10:48:10 AM »

Just the fact that they are making that body again is sweet! With all the aftermarket support for the original bruiser/mountaineer building a "scale" replica just got a bit easier. There have been petetions and campaigns to get them to re-release the bruiser for some time now,I wonder if this is a response to that.

havik · « **Reply #15 on:** Nov 28, 2007, 11:32:52 PM »

the body is sick i have always wanted to build a bruiser body scale project. but the truck is kinda lame if you ask me. at least compared to what else is out there. i have 3 tlts one of which i plan on finally building a scale/comp truck. i have a pretty good idea on how to make the sickest tlt rear axle EVER. it will either be like a Dana 70 or a rockwell.
also the chassis and trans of the hi lift is not the best.
iam just stoked that the 1st gen yota body will be more common and easier to come by= cheaper

iNfErNaL · « **Reply #16 on:** Nov 28, 2007, 11:52:35 PM »

So does anyone know when this thing is gonna be released?.Or did I miss it somewhere?.... I probably did

sloyota · « **Reply #17 on:** Nov 29, 2007, 08:48:59 AM »

there's a few RC shops in Northern California that have these..I dont like the fact they use a ford 350 with a 1st. gen toyota body..all i want is the toyota body for my 2.2 crawler.

Caboose · « **Reply #18 on:** Nov 29, 2007, 12:13:02 PM »
