| Axial B17 Betty Body: opinions?
Curious what everyone thinks of the B17 Betty body that is included with the AX-10. Such an amazing, cool crawler, and in my opinion they throw in one of the ugliest bodies on the market..........Yes I know for 20 bucks i can change it; Lets see some opinions

The Scorpion body isn't growing on me yet. I like a jeep, blazer, or wheely king style body the most.

I liked it better before buying it.Liked the looks of the Power wagon but after getting it,realized how stylized it is.I would gladly run it on a comp rig but not on a scale rig. Pat |

I like it, I would cut that body down and it would look and work good depending on the weight of the body. I would cut just about all of the sides off the bed behind the cab and the tailgate area off and leave the top of the bed. Then cut the front fenders off and go just under the front grill to take off all the front bumper/winch thing. Then I would see how much of the bottom of the door area a guy could go and stay legal. The roof is low and has a nice angle to the A pillar. Last edited by DUDE; 08-05-2007 at 08:36 PM. |

I've got a Betty on my scale rig, and I think it looks GREAT. Perfect cut for running 2.2's and the wheels tuck nicely (stock width). IF you don't want that Betty body, I'll take it! |
