You'd also likely need to raise the body (or do more fender trimming - enlarging the already larger-than-scale wheel openings) to run larger tires. It's a pretty shallow body, so you'd end up with more chassis exposure. Even with this setup the body doesn't cover the whole chassis/battery. Thanks! | |

That is sweet! I like that you used the white spoked wheels which were so typical of these back in the day. Check out this hot little number...could be an option for your hard body Brat. |

Not too bad really. I set it up with the short wheelbase, high ground clearance option. Ashamed to admit, but it’s never been off road. You see, I used the special edition white chassis kit and didn’t want to dirty that up! Even with the short wheelbase, the wheel arches are slightly too far apart on my lexan body; maybe the hard body is better? I used a TT-02 because there’s something morally wrong with a 2wd Brat, and there’s also something morally wrong about a 4wd Brat on solid axles... | |

Looks amazing. I've been wanting to do a scale version of one of these. Very impressive! Great job!
