It's Pactra copper pearl, not orange. It looks much better in person.

It's also a dark teal color not a bright blue.
It looks really good in person.
Thanks for the help BMSMA

Pics from today
The clod is crawlerman's
These tires suck so bad. I would rather use pvc pipe. They wouldn't grab on anything but grass.

Love the chassis, I thought of using the "cutting board" material to form frame rails for my scale rig as well. I'm going to try and laminate them together.

Cole, the bad things about that plastic is:

1. light and strong

2. so easy to work with that you end up getting to many ideas on how to use it

3. and the worst thing is, I let that cat out of the bag. Should have kept it to myself

Looks great man.

Thanks guys it will be better when it gets dyed black.
Yep it's getting masher 2000 friday when ups drops them off. New bling wheels too, 5 spokers.
It's actually very capable. I was very syrprised at how ell it crawls. The bumpers hang up on everything just like a 1:1.

see i like the way the wheels look on it, i would say leave them smaller becuase it looks like a lifted tough truck. By the way i think i might steal those frame rail designs.
