| TLT's K2-4 chassis's and Landy's oh my....
I've got a fever baby, and the only cure is more Landy's!!!!!! Thats right. The infamous hard plastic body Landy is in my grasp. I found a few in Hong Kong and my moto is "Price is no object" so I got in the company jet and picked up a few This build is going to feature a delrin scale type chassis, TLT axles and the new RC4WD R2 tranny :-). Oh I almost forgot. It will also have a hard plastic Landy body. This body is almost the exact same measurments as the HPI in width, length and hight. It should work great! The suspension will be a 3 bar with a panhard bar setup. I'll use the Highlift tires and Tamiya Hummer (hehehe I typed Hummer) rims. Of course I couldn't find the rims anywhere so I bought the whole freaking kit. He!! I flew to Hong Kong to buy toy bodies what's a kit in cost? Enjoy the teaser shots! Oh the last image is what this is capable of turning out like (not that I'm that good at these rigs but I'll try) Last edited by kaetwo; 03-28-2007 at 10:27 PM. |

same question as above. And how many bodies did you get? If you have an extra body that you would be willing to sell, HIT ME UP!!! I'm in love with the landy body, but can't seem to get my hands on one. Guess I don't have the mad skilz you seem to have and the hook ups.

The bodies are $130.00 each so buying the Hummer kit for the rims didn't seem that crazy.....Looking back at it.....I'm nucking futs :-) |

Looks good man. I would love to get my hands on one of those bodies. I hate to tell you this now, but you should have made a trip down to my shop. I have hummer wheels hanging on the wall. Our Tamiya scale parts selection has grown even scence you last saw it. Oh and while I am writing how is the progress on my chassi going? I can't wait to start the build. (Like I have time:-()
