With how short the frame is, I would suggest an scx10 for a donor. Nice start though!

Well here is an idea . You need to raise those upper shock mounts till you have a a skid height around 2 3/4 to 3 inches this is gonna save drive lines cause as it sits they are way to sharp and you will bust them shafts up .as well link geometry right now isnt very good. youre wheel base is going to grow a substantial amount when the shocks compress . This will also be helped by raising those shock hoops.
