Beautiful work, plain and simple. Your tube work is fantastic. I just started brazing recently and bumpers/sliders are just starting to get easier. I can really appreciate and admire what you've done. This ish isn't easy. Nicely done sir!

Thanks. One of the things im planning and looking forward to is the engine parts to try and hide the esc. It will have the old school round breather protruding through the hood and headers that dump through the tubework just behind the front wheels. Tonight i got my 1.9 blazer wired and almost ready to drive and finnish and repaired and modified the stock wraith chassis so that i can trade it for some goodies for the buggy.

You are making me sick. Sick about not having a buggy like this. Time to start buying some tube.

The wheels are huge. I love them but i may wind up swapping them before its over. They definitely will be getting smaller offset hubs. I got a good deal on them but i think tsls are the perfect size. Tubework is done other than added a few tabs for electronics mounts and such. Will be 100% tomorrow and primed. Thanks
