|  K5 Blazer New Frame
After owning this thing for a month and not being able to leave it alone, I decided to start from scratch and totally rebuild it, Here are some pics This is just mockup, I need to grind and finish I know.    I ziptied on the rest of the electronics and took it for a spin,,,,,,,,,, It did amazing, I cant wait to finish it and get started on the Scout Build.

The frame is 1/2" square stock from lowes about $5 for 3ft I will post some more pics tonight after work, I did adjust the body cause it was not straight and too high, also put a little bit taller tire on, looks way better. Thanks Guys  |
