A Different ford-Lightning

[young_version]

I havent even BEGUN this build yet but i thought i'd share what its gonna become a bigass basher! four link rear with savage shocks maybe leaf front. the cab fits a red rock in it it also has a pretty detailed engine bay- perfect for hiding the e-maxx trans mated to a pede t-case, doors open full interior
PICS:

[young_version]

i bought it as a gift for my nephew about 3 years ago, he never found interest in it, and its been sitting since then, it came from toys r us and also had a sea doo rc boat and a trailer too.

yeah we need some full body pics;) . I saw this truck 3 days ago at TRU with the sea-doo. need to see if its worth buyin though.

the interior looks killer:D

[codizzl]

[young_version]

it's been a while since this post has been updated.........i was trying to figure out what i wanted to do with it. and with the new scale class starting up i have to reserve a scale truck for that.So now ive decided to make this my basher.I'm gonna go truggy, and today i chopped off the bed and front bumper, i also bent the front half frame up as well, it'll be four link for sure....the interior will still be intact, motor will be front mounted intermediate shaft to a t-case tranny. RPP beadlocks and probably all-t's or maybe the new rock stompers.

[young_version]

Okay, so i brazed up most of the back half, it looks like as s. but who cares, im not entering a car show with it.im gonna beat the shi t out of it.the tranny situation needs to be re- thought out. im definately going with the hv-maxx 4400kv setup.i figure @14.4 volts this thing should be fun.ill post pic later, not much to look at.

I hate it when you start reading a thread, then noticed its from a year and a half ago.... then..... it just ends.. Awsome.
