It'll never work.

Red Rockcrawler · 01-01-2010, 01:15 PM

This where I ended the build last night.

Got up this morning and have it almost a roller now. Was going to put the motor in but on the 7t puller motor the screws that come with the kit don't fit it. So I have to make a trip to the hardware store.

Skipped a few steps and put the rockers on and bumper.

Now I have to go get paint for this I hope Hobby Town is open today.

Skipped painting the body till I get paint. So I built the back cage.

eortizr · 01-01-2010, 02:46 PM

so I guess HT was closed

Red Rockcrawler · 01-01-2010, 04:47 PM

Well I started on the Wheels and Tires. I was going to paint the wheels black but will be selling them when I order up my Vanquish s-4's. Tires are temps also till my 1.9 rock lox show up.

Drill vent holes in all 5 wheels.

I lost track of time and almost missed checking and seeing if Hobby Town was open they were. Picked up my paint for this build. I also ran to Ace Hardware to pick up 2 4/40 screws to mount the 7T puller motor.

Paint Colors are Metallic Red, Metallic Black and Indy Silver. I have other black and red for the bed.

Motor Installed and Mamba Maxx and Nomadio receiver found it way to the Cow R/c jumbo screw catcher. Servo and battery will be showing up soon also.
