Custom chassis based off a Tucker Sno Cat....but of course fully tube'd out

RC4WD predator EVO tracks and 2.2 tires will be used. A dual purpose machine

Getting a real wood bed. This is tiger wood which is a hardwood used on nice outdoor decks. I figured it would hold up well to getting wet...and it can be stained or cleared.

Cut the pieces and set them to see how it would look. I like it, now to install them.

Looks like it's ready to unleash a smackdown, definately a cool rig to build from as well.

Where's the articulated axle steering?

Chassis is done. As always I keep my work as light as possible by using 3/16 tubing

Bed is assembled. I think it's gonna look awesome once I get the chassis painted black.
