Talking 72 Chevy class 2 crawler! Caution pic heavy!!!

About a month ago I got really into scale crawling with a couple of buddies and a local club. At the time I had a wraith but it just wasn't scale.... So I sold it and bought this.....

It was cooland all but it's a "cookie dough crawler in my opinion! Mandatory flex shot!

So I decided to go a little different!

All painted up and body mounted. Cow I just need to figure out the hood situation....

And finally body mounted good on and ready to crawl!!

You can take the rear body posts out now... Personally, I liked your "cookie cutter" crawler better. But I am a jeep/bronco guy, so that is to be expected.

Why did you cut the hood off the body in the first place?

Yeah.. If I didn't I would have to pull the complete body off and it's not the easiest to do on the trail.. So I cut the hood.

I took it out this weekend to a local and it did awesome until the drive shaft broke loose twice! The low center of gravity of this body was awesome!

I got the new driveshafts put on it late Thursday night and went for a test run Friday after work and it worked out great! Here is a picture of it with all the scale accessories and rack mounted! This truck is really starting to grow on me!

And it was nice to be the only one at our local comp that didn't have a rubicon or jeep or honcho body! 20 class 2 trucks looked all the same except for mine!
