Default 2.2 TLT Clodded

Here is my 2.2 scale truck sporting its new(unpainted)clod body with cowl induction hood and geolanders on WK wheels.Going to have working headlights,fog lights and taillights.Need to decide on what color to
paint it.Chasis is donated from a blazing blazer,also has a WK trans with T-Maxx 9T pinion and 72T spur,front leafs,rear 4 link,55T Integy,tlt axles locked and a WK speed controller.

dont know why nobody has replied here, i like it alot! glad youre keeping it all chevy with a blazer chassis. i think youre off to a great start and if i were you i would try to lower the body a little bit. cut away at the thing under the grille to get it really low. also it apprears that your springs are kinda tired looking, it may just be the photos though. and for a color i would paint it just like a priority mailbox and with my adress painted on it.

Front leafs are really soft.I made them from the recoil spring from a
lawnmower pull start,but they work really good.Rear has stock TLT shock setup.If I lower the body,the tires will rub,partically the rear with the 4 link.I still have to install front and rear bumpers also.Thanks for the comments.

Pics of the truck painted(not the best paint job but it works for me,going to get scratched up anyway),with 1.9 dirtworks on Tamiya wheels,then
Geolanders on Wheely king wheels and then 2.2 Swamp Dawgs on RPM Revolvers.Which ones look the best?Let me know your opinions.

Dude looks good but you definatly need to lower the body. I would lower it so the bottom of the body would be in align with the frame. It would look so much better. And i would narrow the Geo's and use them.
