This started life as an hpi mini trophy truck, I chopped the rear suspension and cut up a perfectly good yeti body and now it is slowly becoming the mini trophy yeti.

The mini trophy is almost the same width as an scx10. The wheel base is a little long I'm probably going to take a 1/2 inch off.

I'm still working out the kinks on the tail end but this is essentially what it will look like. I need to finish some tube work and build a new axle truss still. Also I'm thinking I may use some vaterra trailing arms in place of the hpi mtt trailing arms, that should bring my wheel base down to about 12.25".
