|  Intimidator SS
I know there have been quite a few of these bodies used in builds, but I was in desperate need of a body to use for my tow rig for my 1.9 rock racer. I am waiting on tires and hope they will be here tomorrow. I pulled the ones off the buggy for now. I will make bumpers and rock guards when I get back from the comp in OK. Hopefull I can make the trailer hitch and finish the trailer tomorrow. I was also able to keep all the interior pieces. Just had to move the back seat up to put the battery behind it. specs: k2-3s copy I got in the classifieds for $10 bucks  R2 I got in the classifieds for $50 bucks HPI stock car rims from RCP $12 bucks Tamiya silver can $0 TLT axles with bearings-on loan from CURVE until one of my $80tlt kits comes in Dale Earnhardt Intimidator SS rc toy $30 at freds Traxxas rod ends, pede yokes, shafts, allthread, misc hardware $40 XL-5 esc I got in a trade way back $30 MX-3 transmitter that I use on another truck too $50 Battery my nephew gave me cause it dont fit his buggy $0 |

Purchase - Build - Drive.......in 3 days. Must be nice to have all your sheet before you buy your body. Love the Yabba-Dabba-Doo Pic. A lot more flex that I was expecting. Looking good. I'll get those Slingers to ya at some point. |

I had to ghetto fab the link mounts and when I almost lost a finger twice I figured out a way not to even run the link mounts in the rear |

yep. It looks ok. I just finished the trailer. Cant decide if I wanna paint it black or not. YOU Guys decide for me. I also just made the best lookin part I have ever made since I started crawlin. It prolly even looks better than my exhaust on the rock racer Pics when it dries | |

This rig is empressive to see in action...but you might want to rethink the diamiter of the links or go with something stronger the way it was being drove! I cant wait to see the updates with the bed work you were talkin about! Dont forget that I need the old bed when your done!
