"Hip to be square" that was so righteous, loved that! Thank you, you made my day buddy! Long live the 80's!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Sysiphos]

I have been brooding for a while how there was no kit or RTR with simple transmission and detailed licensed body (and portals), I like 80s chevys so this is perfect

[@scalebuildersguild]

Enjoy!

[@TyJoe_N_MattyMoe]

It might be hip to be square, but I need a new drug with the power of love.

[@scalebuildersguild]

😂

[@The_RC_Guru]

Missed my that much ! Body pins/posts and tha high bed bottom?!?

[@johnsavage7842]

I just bought the base camp , never fails when I get something they come out with a different body , oh well , maybe they will make the body available if it fits the last base camp chassis , great videos , please keep them coming , I love to see what you are getting into and new products

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks for watching!

[@longtalltexanrc3358]

Best cold intro ever. Also looks like a great truck but I think I’m now more interested in getting that body for my old school monster truck rebuild. Great content as usual.

[@brodynyhof3054]

It’s a really small body. Might look funny for a monster truck build. For mine, I used the j concepts f150. Fit real nice

[@longtalltexanrc3358]

@@brodynyhof3054 interesting. Mine is actually on 2.2s and a Highlift chassis. I was thinking about using a traxxas Bigfoot body because that body was smaller than my clod.

[@thomasbialzik3060]

Looks like Frosty got a new drug and started Zombie walking through the parking lot. Love the visual😂

[@MrCveedub]

This may come as a shock to you, but I feel that as a child of the 80s, Huey Lewis and News freaking ROCKS!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Of course they do!

[@Wainfleetrccrawlers]

I have a Basecamp one of my favorites right next to the Honcho SCX10II. Both are my everyday drivers. 🐐🐐

[@thegoat78]

Nice unit. 🤔 I like the added touch of the bumper lights... Thanks... Thanks, now I'm listening to Huey Lewis..

[@scalebuildersguild]

Enjoy!

[@rascalracing4428]

I wish it would be on the straight axle Base camp platform

[@nikolus24]

As a member of the sub 30 committee, I can confirm that the joke goes straight over my head. 😂 Great video keep up the amazing work!

[@scalebuildersguild]

You've got homework 😂.

[@JSAsher]

Not sure why it isn’t done box stock but with a couple of aluminum spacers you can move that stubby battery plate up in front of the lcxu trans. The ears of the original 10 III transmount are still present and near a direct fit.

[@plasticspoonrc]

Would like to see a chop and drop on that body. Maybe another option for LCG build?

[@smallfact0ry921]

Truck, for camping.

[@Gorealawarfare]

Now I know what they did with all the extra 40th anniversary Pro-Line K10 models 😂! Strip em down boys!

[@KearSki]

I was thinking the same thing! I like it, although I find it odd how the back of the cab looks wrong, despite proline having made other squarebodies that look great! I know it probably has to relate to how it is a one piece body compared to the two piece design of the other/older (1973) squarebody stepside they make...Of course it isn't a major detail, I'm just ranting because the later model ones are my favorites.

[@billcharlene1450]

I used to have a real one, boy do I miss it!

[@forrestcrabbe]

The truck looks great, i too reallylike the stepside bed. Chevy made the square body from '73 to '87. Mine was an '81. Hope all is well 🤘y'all have a badass day🤘🍻🤘

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks! You too 🤘

[@davidhiscock1969]

Now I like the look of that . Sweet looking truck

[@leestewart5424]

Excellent running video Thanks for the review wouldn't mind a Limited Edition one

[@jessefoster3427]

It looks fantastic. Axial did a great job. BUT.. For me it's tough. I'd have to swap it to straight axles, add rock sliders and inner fenders plus a interior. At that point, I'd just get a VS410 straight axle kit. Then buy the body separately

[@scalebuildersguild]

Fair enough, thanks for watching!

[@BudgetRC_Channel]

I'm a huge Square body fan (I own an 87 GMC Sierra Classic 3500), but this truck just leaves me cold. If Axial is going to pick a body that Traxxas already has, they should at least try to make it comparable in quality and detail.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Fair enough, thanks for watching!

[@Overland_RC]

All I care about are those 4.19 Wildpeak MTs 😍

[@robertbillingsley2184]

I'll be getting one my grandpa had a 1982 just like it when I was a kid

[@scalebuildersguild]

Very cool!

[@2Geek2bChic]

Thank you for getting some mirror rub in the running footage.... I would have felt very let down otherwise. 😂

[@terryschlosser211]

I agree about the body pins but what i feel would look better is just move the body pins forward abd out to about center of the head lights make them look like hood pin

[@johnsavage7842]

Just ordered this from A main hobbies, love your videos

[@scalebuildersguild]

Enjoy it! Thanks for watching!

[@rascalracing4428]

Great review again Matt! Always looking foward to your videos, humour and honest opinions! Keep up the good work!!!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks! Will do!

[@waynelyons3474]

I am partial to fords, but how can’t you love this Chevy.

[@briandoroshuk6837]

I think Matt and Headquake should collab for a feature length video. Two great creatives.

[@kimmern999]

I came here to thumb up for the caption in the thumbnail.

[@mikebird8290]

Thanks for sharing this truck Matt. I REALLY like the body(BLACK) for me. BRILLIANT truck to start from 🇬🇧🇨🇦✌🏼🤩👍🏼

[@scalebuildersguild]

Agreed!

[@VermontScaleCustoms]

Nice, of note, I like how Axial and some other companies are paying attention and offering various mounting options for things like suspension, wheelbase, and servos. It seems like only a few years ago you got one or the other but not all on one chassis.

[@ericzencka2641]

Great video and I’m north of 30 so the intro was great! I was fortunate to win the light blue pre production bodies at Axialfest Badlands.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Very cool!

[@offroad1911]

They almost nailed a winner, but the body clips holds it back. It’s still a pretty cool truck.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Fair enough, thanks for watching!

[@ManyOts]

I heard Huey Lewis is going to be at Dorcia this weekend.

[@BlindGuyRc]

It's not a bad truck. I like it. I think axial fixed the 10.3 issues. I'd like to see a good forward motor style trans. Oh wait. The 10 pro hahaha. This is cool. Great video man.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks man!

[@BC-rc]

I've got huey lewis on cassette, that's how old I am, lol

[@scalebuildersguild]

You can also stream it... just saying 😂

[@Minircdriver]

Good to see new stuff, trucks!!

[@rctraildriversuk-lone-wolfvide]

Good review, spot on about the clear windows, shame Trax not listening about this on another review i noticed a fair bit of tyre clicking in the arches, bit of a shame, i wont be getting one as im working on a Ford F-150 lariat on an FTX chassis...perfect fit

[@Speedycat]

7:08 That's a rebranded Hobbywing WP-1040 (SPMXSE1040)

[@jasoncovert9051]

The side-step square body Chevy starred in 1973 to 1987

[@AgeOrmstad]

Love the 80's, and BC💪👍

[@svpracer98]

I think the proline color is the best of the 3... Although I may be a bit biased on that one...

[@scottmontz6664]

80-88 had the dual headlights stacked. Pre 80 had the solo round eye. 89+ had the dual lights side by side.

[@longtalltexanrc3358]

I had an 82 and 87. Both had single headlights on top and blinkers on bottom.

[@MeatSleeve]

As soon as I seen it in the bench…. I went pre-order it🤣🤦🏽‍♂️ then came back to the rest of the video 🤣🤣

[@scalebuildersguild]

Cool! Enjoy it!

[@mikerainey3847]

Always quality content, nice truck!

[@Maximum_777]

Wow, so I got myself an SCX10 II Chevy Blazer RTR, and I got it right around when they had stopped making them and the first SCX10 III's were just making it to the hobby shops. Comparing that truck with this, as that truck was essentially a top of the line SCX10 II, it's insane what you get now in a "Base Camp" model, it's really impressive how far the scale trucks have come.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Agreed!

[@minizautosclub1897]

That brush of the mirror was way to gentle to be realistic. 😂 nice video as always! Thanks for sharing.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks for watching!

[@gatorrcgames]

Good vide9 on a newish Basecamp. Have a great rest of your week!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Same to you!

[@michaelavery4427]

Kudos to Axial for sticking to 1.9! Im a little surprised that they didn't counter Traxxas with a lifted 2.2. I'm sure it was due to keep price point down. Thx Matt!

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks for watching!

[@pwrofgrayskull]

Excellent review as always, thank you. I appreciate your opinion and honesty. Always cool to see new rides coming out. 👍✌️

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks! 👍

[@Axial_Andrew]

Poor snowman never saw it comin'...🤠

[@BusyBeesGrading]

I have the anniversary edition. Its supposed to be a 1982 chevy truck.

[@justinomarino]

Not my jam, but I’m glad the option is out there for someone to enjoy.

[@matthewehiggins]

Please get that reasonable opinion off the internet. That's not what the web is for

[@martystenfors]

Those rings on the wires are ferrite beads. They help with interference. Love the videos.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks for watching!

[@saturnfivehynrgrc581]

Good morning Matt. Nice shirt.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Hey, thanks!

[@ThisisTyy]

Would love to try a rear shock tower an body mount relocation to try and fit a printed deep bed for more detail

[@scalebuildersguild]

Cantilevers are your friend!

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

They also come in black but blue would be my choice

[@needlejuse1113]

Looks great i love it❤❤❤

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@713Ace529]

If this came from RC4WD, yes I would get one. They are overdue in upgrading their blazer.

[@rickfazzini22]

Great review very entertaining as expected. Sorry to say,still needs smaller tires and they need to be inboard more. Going the right direction though👍🏻

[@DoubleADay]

I want this body for my scx10 pro kit

[@Andy_C_aka_Cliff_McCrawl]

I’m getting big time John Baker from CHiPs vibes!

[@andyb9994]

Good looking truck, and for the price you can't go wrong with a Basecamp, great chassis and cool body 💯👍👍

[@scalebuildersguild]

Agreed! The Basecamp is always one of the trucks I recommend to newbies.

[@BeardRubEnjoyer]

Ooooh thats pretty. Dammit! I'm trying to SAVE money over here.

[@rodblaine2514]

Any word on whether Proline will be releasing a clear version of that body?

[@rcmadnessminitruckclub]

What no Huey Lewis and the News music? ( I know copyrights.)I had the 12th scale version of that truck. I might pick this up. It looks amazing. Thank you once again for the great content.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Thanks for watching!

[@sunriserc1033]

Awesome! I think I’ll buy a clear body to run on my Limited edition.

[@Coltron_Actual]

It's a sharp looking truck, but hard to be excited about anything from Horizon at the moment with the on-going madness over there.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Fair enough, thanks for watching!

[@chevyon37s]

I just came here to see the comments about portal axles under a square body

[@jerryvolpini7987]

You've got a bunch of young guys Googling "Huey Lewis and the News" 😂

[@scalebuildersguild]

Totally!

[@TyJoe_N_MattyMoe]

Clear windows are like cowbell....gotta have it!

[@GMbusa1]

Looks great.

[@_Sphaxz_]

Much like the limited edition version of this that they released a while back, I wish they'd have thrown it on the straight axle version of the basecamp that now exists

[@_Sphaxz_]

Also, hey Pro-line, if you can pull off this K10 so well, can we have another shot at getting a SCX6 sized one that's not vomit inducing?

[@navigationmanship]

Square bodies are everywhere! This one is a good looker but c'mon. What else do they have? Something totally unique..

[@jasonbecker4997]

It’s better than another new Bronco…

[@Ipootjuice]

Can we please get some new hardbody’s for once

[@ashleyconnelley1856]

Yes sir

[@thekeytoairpower]

I am pretty sure my 14 year old kid would get the Huey Lewis joke, because he is a bigger BTTF fan than even I was.

[@ShadeTree_RC]

wish you had tried that body on the og BC lol

[@CrawlerRuth]

While at Axialfest West 2023 I decided to go with the Axial-Pro-Line limited edition k10 at a lower price. Now, to compare and see what to bring it up to the current level. Any information would be appreciated. Missed you at Axialfest. But understand work has to come first.

[@scalebuildersguild]

You’re probably in a better state with the special edition. Congratulations!

[@CrawlerRuth]

Do you know of a fix for the servo horn hitting the panhard mount?

[@TheAmericanUhate]

I'm not a chevy fan myself, actually hate GM products as a whole lol. It is weird to me that they haven't reproduced any 88-98 GM body's, none that I've ever seen anyway. That body style running for an entire decade, and the popularity it had, seems it would be a good seller imo. I had one myself, and is the reason I hate chevy vehicles to this day still 😂

[@scalecrawlnl]

Fore! I hope you can take a basecamp over to Headquake's track before long since he now is, thankfully, back in the KZbin arena :) Maybe even the new basecamp chassis or kit can be the basis of a new build, that would be cool. Perhaps bring KPOP and do a real Canadian Comrades review and drive, IDK a 'basecamp bash'. I'll stop now before a get ahead of myself with ideas. Great SBG forest footage of the Chevy crawling and a like added ofcourse. Cheers👌

[@scalebuildersguild]

I hope to get out there soon, but work has been really busy!

[@jpokorny2268]

Yeeee haw ! That thar's a purdy nice truck.

[@adamhirerc78]

Up in smoke .....that's where my body goes😂😂😂

[@1500chessie]

Matt, not quiet right. How about " I got a new drug?" Huey was fantastic in the day.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Maybe it was the Power of Love?

[@TOYitCUTE]

is it ready to ruin?

[@zamoragera13]

Not bad. But i would put a little smaller tire. Not too much

[@rickmunden4791]

if you could only pick one 1:10 RTR RC Crawler which would you pick over all? Thank you BC1046

[@scalebuildersguild]

I'd hands down choose the Phoenix from Vanquish!

[@justinperry4783]

Hopefully they fixed that body I have one of the proline anniversary trucks and I'm thrilled to see this because it means a clear body will come out but the back of the cabs are terribly weak 3 hobby shops around me had them coming in with broken bodies cracked at the back of the cab mine is a shelf queen because I'm afraid the first time it bounces down a trial it's probably going to crack

[@scalebuildersguild]

Looks reasonably thick in all areas now. Thanks for watching!

[@justinperry4783]

Awesome glad to hear that and of course gotta stay updated on the @scalebuildersguild

[@ChrisMaybury-mn2kk]

I happen to like the body clips it reminds me of racing clips and I don't like the tabs that clipless body's tend to have ! Just my thoughts.

[@scalebuildersguild]

Fair enough, thanks for watching!

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

It’s an 82-87

[@gerardorodriguez538]

If the basecamp comes with portals, why haven't they put a Unimog body on it?

[@rcsnapon2132]

Cool 😎

[@idworkhard]

I wonder if there is a way to reduce the body jiggle which is especially noticeable on the front side.

[@scalebuildersguild]

It’s accentuated by the slow motion, but sure, add some foam rings on the underside of the body!

[@SingleSpeedRC]

I really want it but I just want to do all the wrong things with it...pinch the front end, cage the back...

[@skinanbonesOG]

Wait, What, This isn't a Ripper V2.

[@allana5930]

86/87 .

[@rockriverpig]

Sigh…. I sell Chevy Trucks for a living and have a tremendous weakness for blue regular cabs. Yet, I’m the proud owner of a “basic blue” basecamp that is my favorite rig as it’s my beater that I enjoy doing dumb stuff with. Can’t wrap my head around having two?

[@scalebuildersguild]

😂

[@kdecesari]

What track was playing during the drive footage? Is that Black Rebel Motorcycle Club? It's been awhile since I've listened to them. I'll take that over Huey Lewis! Thanks for the content.

[@scalebuildersguild]
