    That's so awesome!

    I'd like to see the 0-60 with the camera up through the windshield to see that perspective!

    Absolute fantastic job though!

    Great job! I want to do my Land Cruiser 80 series but I think I will need to use the axle based motors though. an independent suspension I don't think will work on the LC
