Default creepingcrawler's 1.9 blazer (NOW WITH VIDEO)

this truck started as a 2.2 build with a chevy silverado hd body, but i got hunger to go 1.9 instead. list of parts so far include:

k5 blazer body
1.9 flat irons g8 compound
1.9 axial black chrome wheels
custom chassis
ax-10 running gear
custom bent links
4 linked front and rear
novak rooster crawler esc
novak fifty-five motor, switching to a 35 or 45 later
traxxas tx and rx for the time being
intellect 3800mah nimh battery
proline scale bumpers
semi scale chain that i found in my moms arts and crafts box
proline scale accesories asst.#1 gas can, cooler, and which acc. box not yet mounted

i'm far from complete on this rig, still need to water proof the electronics and plan to do a frame mounted steering servo. also rock sliders and possibly an interior and maybe fender flares. but here are a few pics.
P.S. dont mind all the finger prints and smudges, fingers were a little greasy when i took the pics.
