Default Phoenix, a c2 Dodge M80 Truggy

I'm calling this rig Phoenix because of how many times its been reborn. My goal is to use hand me downs from my Jeep and parts from the classifieds. Nothing new. Except maybe paint.

This little truck has some history and has been passed around a little, here's what I know..

It began life in March 2014 as the class 3 "Spartan"

Build thread: Distinctive pd "spartan" c3 - RCCrawler

It was sold shorty after being finished and it became "Stubs"

Build thread: Project 1.9: Dodge M80 "Stubs" - RCCrawler

There is a bit of a gap between owners here and finally became "another truggy rebuild"

Build thread: Another Truggy rebuild.. - RCCrawler

This is how I received it, I'm sure there have been other owners. If you have owned it at some point, let me know or post a picture.

I decided that I wanted to put a simple cage in it for scale points and to give the body some support, so I hit up PIMPNROCKS. Since it was there, I decided to have a BA bumper put on the front and the rear tube work completely redesigned. I'm very happy with the way it looks now. The body probably won't stay black because it hides the tubework, but i do like the murdered out look. Idk, Here's a little preview..
