Ready to make the switch, going to turn my 2.2 Comp crawler into a 1.9 Scaler. I want to build the chassis but if it doesn't go well I'll go with a scx chassis. This is what I'm starting with.
Axial AX10
Robinson gears in trany.
STRC rear lockouts.
alum. C's and Hubs.
Hitec servo
Novak Goat 2s
And Proline 73 Bronco body with cage.






And on to the body.

Like everyone else has said, sick paintjob man! Can't wait to see how this turns out. What are you going to try to make the chassis out of?

[Mt.Dew]

Got Willy's body done.

Got a cyber Monday winch from RPP Hobby 20 bucks, Thank's RPP
But don't like the hook on them so I made my own out of aluminum.
Cut it out drilled the hole and shaped it with a file. I think it looks pretty good.

Thank's. and Yah I work at a Dodge and Jeep dealer. Been doing paint work a long time. The more I do the more scale I want too make it. I'll keep updating.

[Mt.Dew]

Really getting into this scale thing so I tried my hand at making some stuff.

The Brown Santa brought me a present today. 1.9 Swampers, now I need wheel's.

[Mt.Dew]

Got a SCX chassis set and proline shocks for Christmas. Still want to build a frame, but I can get it up and running and use it for measurements later. The Wife also ordered me 1.9 monsters from Mayhem, Dan was pretty busy and didn't get them done in time to ship. Understandable with Christmas and all. Really looking forward to getting them.

Thanks to Deb. for helping my wife order the right thing.

These are going to be Sweeeeet!!! Thank's Mayhem. Can't Wait.

Velcro down the hole rocker to hold body on holds really well.
