|  Monty's Bronco Buggy Build
So after giving his RTR wraith to his grandson, my father in law wanted another wraith but wanted it to be rather built and with a body that's not as common. So he asked me to build him a wraith with a bronco body. This will be some what of a slow build because he is still deciding on parts as I'm building. Plus I have to find time to build lol  So far pulled the wraith into the shop to start assembling the cage. About 75% done with the BPC battery tray installed.  |

Well I did say this would be slow. Just waiting on OD gears for the front and the steel gears for the trans. Also he decided on curries so I also have to wait for VP to get them in stock

Yeah man. Came out real nice. Lots of nice details on this one. I love my BPC skid but wasn't sure how it would look with a nice lexan body on the Wraith. I just have aluminum side panels and a roof. This body looks great with that skid. Thanks for sharing.
