Back in September, Paul Dabao of Toyota approached me with an idea on creating a full-sized Scion xB Switch . The concept behind the initial plan was to create an ultimate support vehicle for the r/c world. The xB would be complete with a pull-out table, battery chargers, storage, tool chest, and entertainment – while replicating the 1:10 r/c model with body pins and antenna.

Car Town – The Shrimp Guys (Taco Truck) / Story

Car Town

 

In L.A. fine dining is nothing unusual, from gourmet burgers to exotic dishes by countries you will never visit. Five star restaurants exist on just about every street corner. But in L.A. there seems to be another phenomenon that most of the country could not grasp or make famous, lunch trucks. Yes, the run of the mill ‘roach coaches’ blasting cucaracha at 140 decibels. Although L.A. has their share of standard white trucks with a limping wheel, another lifestyle trend that L.A. has to offer are gourmet meal trucks.

We know this isn’t a Scion, but Car Town is just way too addicting. Plus, any Scion in the game is way too slow to keep up with the guys in muscle right now… There are GTR’s and such, but that takes time and money, both of which we don’t have yet… So in any case, here is a Blue Flamed Camaro…Enjoy!

After creating the graphics for the xB. We decided to create the “d!”-Teal for the tC. Like the xB, the tC features carbon fiber hood, roof, and hatch. We will be adding other graphics as they come. In the meantime, spread the word and enjoy!
