Default JunkRunner

Yes, you read the title right. From the people (me) who brought you such classics as the JunkBird, I now bring you the JunkRunner...a fun project I started because I got tired of the color I painted the 4-Runner I had, and the fact when I was pulling it apart, it broke. So....My progress thus far:

Good start so far, although, you should find a different way of mounting instead of a big Lego wall. I would re-do the paint, and have certain areas look junkerish. Say you paint it red, you can speckle brown to make a mud like look.
