I really like the clear hood. I am pretty sure that Josh does have a sharp blade. It is still inside the unopened box of blades that he bought 10 years ago. He plans to open the box and use a new blade in another 10 years when his current blade is what he considers dull.
Those googly eyes and that lower horizontal vent in the grill make the Fordyce look really concerned! I love it :D Also congratulations on having a set of Roosts to spare. I have a set on my Ripper and constantly regret that I didn't buy more of them...
I love the googely eyes on the headlights. I saw a video of someone at the Silver Lake Sand Dunes do that with their clapped out Explorer. He kept hitting the whoops and those eyes comedically did their thing.
Your not stupid... hahaha. Love the hood. I may have to try this. This new style of the show is awesome. Great work man. Can't wait till next week. Or whatever week it will be hahaha Have a great trip in Ireland man.
AvE taught me, you can really tell how well manufactured something is when you can put it together easily after you've taken it apart. Watching this was a clear indicator of that.
I’m watching as I write this. First you are NOT AN IDIOT!!!! You are one of the BEST BUILDERS of Scale Rc Trucks on earth 🌍. Anyone that capable is NO IDIOT. Having said that it’s time to shut up and watch this episode. Take care and stay safe Matt. PS, ya needed to hear that. Later sir!!!!!
Great job on the clear hood area/peek-a-boo engine! Nice to see a nice clear lexan area without any clouding or paint tint. Maybe we'll see some front grille detailing in the future?? Wink, wink!😉
We're all stupid idiots some days. lol Yes, imperial hardware is superior to metric as far as bite and strength, for sure. I didn't know about the polycarbonate cleaner trick, I've always used brake fluid. It looks like it works great!
I laughed my butt off watching you forced to use a calculator to subtract 72.98 from 75.00 hahaha, you're such a goon. Love your work on the hood , great look. I'm just razzzing you ol boy.
I like the motor window a lot! Looks great. But I really don’t see how the lightweight transmission gears are going to give you $33 worth of more performance?
I view the light weight gears not so much as an advantage in the running gear of the rig, as most people will never be able to tell the difference in efficiency or increase in throttle response from it being easier for the motor to spin them. But rather a reduction in weight and lowering the COG of the chassis. As for worth the $$ for performance gain… up to the user. This is more of one of those last little bit of performance items, that the value can only be seen once you’ve reached the limits in other areas of performance gain. And doing these gears in combination with the wheel weights is a good way to.
Isn't it a bit pointless adding the lightweight front gears and then adding brass rings because what you saved on rolling mass with gears you've now added more to the wheels 🤔 is that right or am I getting it wrong?
But you used no budget last week because it was recycle week. So shouldn't you have had 65 more dollars on your budget since y'all are rolling over the leftover funds?
Ohhh you even included the body cleaner price. You’re really throwing around that extra $15!
But he didn’t include the paper towel needed to use it price!
Oops!
That clear window for the motor came out great!!!!!
I love watching two idiots spend money!!!

Clearing out the hood was a really good idea. Me Gusta!!!
Also WHEEL OF 4 DEE CHAY
is a better totals for the spiny wheel!! 😂
Muchas gracias!
Loving the clear hood section
I am rewatching these 6 months later. I just purchased a Fordyce last weekend 🎉
Cool! I hope you enjoy it!
I love the googely eyes on the headlights. I saw a video of someone at the Silver Lake Sand Dunes do that with their clapped out Explorer. He kept hitting the whoops and those eyes comedically did their thing.
Awesome!
Living right. The wheel loves you
Love the hood window.
Love the eye ball headlights
I'm still on the factory blade lol Deff team Josh in that regard. I couldn't tell you how many years I had it haha
Your not stupid... hahaha.
Love the hood.
I may have to try this.
This new style of the show is awesome.
Great work man.
Can't wait till next week.
Or whatever week it will be hahaha
Have a great trip in Ireland man.
I put brass rings on the front of my Phoenix and love it

Great week sir. Thank you.
I must find those wheels!!!
Great idea on the see through hood.
Like the clear hood with sticker. Makes 3D engine look 👀 good
It's been quite sometime since I touched. My axial F-150. But soon hopefully. Thanks for the motivation and tips and trucks you provide.
Go for it!
Nice Googly eyes!!!! Great footage!!! Keep these nice videos coming!!!
Thank you! Will do!
That hood mod looks amazing!
Look at the doors as well. Se my comment from last week.
Your truck looks so much better than Harley's already!
Thanks!
clearing the hood to see the engine looks sweet.
truck looks great , thanks

Super fun watching your builds!,
Whats hilarious about that is that i actually still hwve that scx24 toyota body you did a few years ago😁
That's awesome!
Matt is hacking the wheel
Ha! Just lucky!
Awesome Matt! I'm totally looking forward to seeing it all done!
Woo hoo I love a sbg update
Yes..I do enjoy watching idiots! Makes me feel at home! Thanks, fun build!!
I wouldn’t go redundant on yourself (stupid+ idiot)
I usually stick to calling myself a moron 😂
Anyway awesome video, the usual greatness 🧨💯
I had just thought about clearing a hood. Great work on that. Continued fortune on your next spins!
Thank you!

There needs to be a slot on the wheel that is for, 'parts viewers sent in' And it has to be incorporated on both rigs no matter how c***** the part is
Ha!
We're all stupid idiots some days. lol Yes, imperial hardware is superior to metric as far as bite and strength, for sure. I didn't know about the polycarbonate cleaner trick, I've always used brake fluid. It looks like it works great!
Awesome upgrades and very cool DIY upgrade as well.
Looks great! I can already see the disdain on Josh's face when he sees the googly eyes. 🤓
That grill just doesn’t do anything for me(sorry just being honest) but man the hood mod, to see the printed engine below you knocked it out ❤
I laughed my butt off watching you forced to use a calculator to subtract 72.98 from 75.00 hahaha, you're such a goon.
Love your work on the hood , great look.
I'm just razzzing you ol boy.
Math is DEFINITELY not my strong point.
Loving the Wheel of Misfortune concept! 😂
I like that tshirt 🤘
As long as the bag is seven grams we good😉😅😅
So far my favorite mod is the googly eyes 👀 😂
I can’t wait for Matt to declare Bankruptcy
That's not very nice 😂

Great build. The wheels and clear hood are bitchin. Side bar question, Where did you get the mint green Porsche and are they available now?
Pandora RC Japan makes that body, thanks for watching!
“2JZ Engine. No Sh-t”
Isn't it a bit pointless adding the lightweight front gears and then adding brass rings because what you saved on rolling mass with gears you've now added more to the wheels 🤔 is that right or am I getting it wrong?
More weight down low makes sense to me. I'm increasing the efficiency of the transmission, and placing that weight where it'll matter more.
Should spin for each other for a week
With the light weight gears does it effect the drag braking?
Insignificant.
Didn’t you carry over 60 from last week? As you had a free recycle week? Confused now.
No, the wheel replaces whatever we would initially start with.
@@scalebuildersguild aaaa right. I must have missed that. Thought josh was trying to do you out of money. Lol.
Hi Matt, why did you use the 0.8 rings instead of the 1.0 rings? 😊
Beats me, probably because that’s what came with those wheels. I prefer a narrow width anyway.
Should you not have last week's 60 dollars as well since it was recycle bin week?
No, the wheel does not carry money forward. The wheel is the week.
Will the SSD brass knuckles fit on the fordyce?
If they fit on the Phoenix, then yes!
Matt, where do I get a 3d printed engine?
Thanks, Al
harleydesigns.com/store/vs4-2jz Right there Al.
Lmao 🤣
That truck costs way too much to have imperial screws.
It's entirely metric on the truck. The wheels, which are sold separately, have imperial for the added bite and strength.
Matt’s gotta be cheating some how
Hey! That's not nice 😂!
But you used no budget last week because it was recycle week. So shouldn't you have had 65 more dollars on your budget since y'all are rolling over the leftover funds?
We don’t rollover if it’s a weird week like Recycle.
