I retired the Police Bronco body of my 1/10 Traxxas TRX-4 and went with a Park Ranger theme 79 Blazer.

Not 100% complete yet. I have some smaller tires coming in. Might as well post it before Oppo goes away :’(

Started out with a clear body. Put the paint masks which was not easy.

Tamiya dark green

Then white. An actual Park Ranger livery would be white and some green, but this looks better.

Then a final coat of silver. Added some vinyl to where the paint might rub

Getting the body fitted on the frame.

All the stickers and trim work applied.

Got rid of the chrome rims and replaced with some steel beadlocks! I painted the rims a medium grey.

Ready for park backyard enforcing action! :P

The chrome really sells it, does that have little leaf springs?

Did you send me a link once for masking tape for plastic models? I need to do some masking on a model.

Nah I dont think that was me. The masking came with the clear body. Looks like its normal painters tape IMO.
