Thanks for the link....hadn't seen that.

I had considered narrowing the front but decided I had plenty of other work to do.
I'm pretty busy with other stuff so the build is going plenty slow as it is.

Got a firewalll and floor roughed in. I think I'm about done with the chassis.
Tube chassis weighs 18 ounces. Now to decide on a color.....

Finally got the chassis done. Powder-coated it at a friend's house and the powder finish
came out kinda rough. Was going to strip and redo but figured it'd just slow me down more.
So am proceeding with it as is......

I knew this build would be slow......

Been super busy working on some 1:1 stuff and this thing's just been sitting on the bench for a while.

Picked up some cool RC4WD True Scale wheels and Rock Crusher tires.
