I figured you guys would like that.

I might have something else here.

Ok, I was kidding on the Grappler at first. But, I think it would look cool. It's either that of one of these other two. Keep in mind I'll have about 1 week to build this, so it's going to lack scale detail no matter what body I run.

I think the Grappler would sweet as a scaler personally.

I am thinking on another Land Rover for myself!

The wheel and tire combo look good.
I like the way the Hummer body looks with them.
The Grappler body would be cool pre-runner style.

I built a soft top for a grappler. It looked pretty sweet.

I've thought of using the Grappler for a scale build myself actually. I thought of doing a truggy with it. It's not that far off from a Toyota-ish look.
I think it looks good.

Those wheels however don't do anything for me......sorry.

I hate the wheels too. I have some special 1.9 beadlocks coming for it.

I'm going with the Grappler just to be different, and I have one here. That's the look I'm going for, a barely road legal dovetailed/bobbed Yota crawler with 1 ton axles. Plus, the chassis I'm using is set-up for a 12" wheelbase I believe. The other bodies are too short. I even had Sparky bring by his Brat hardbody, but the wheelbase is too short on that too.

It's for plowing through small, lightweight rock racers.

Oh great thanks.

You have to catch it before you can hit it;)

In tennessee it got hit right in the passanger door by an emaxx doing about 60mph and it drove away without a scratch;)
