| 1.9 Tube Chassis
Ive been building my 1.9 for about 2 months now, I finally got around to making a more permanent body than cut up monster cans zip tied on haha. Im having fun making the body, probably spending a little more time making it nice than I should be haha I built the chassis myself about 2 months ago and threw the running gear from my scaler that didnt work out as intended and got parted out in it. The tires are 1.9 Flat Irons on HPI Stock Car wheels. TLT axles, TLT tranny, mini t shocks, rooster crawler esc, Losi DSM Tx and Rx, 65T motor runs off a 1650 2S lipo, pretty simple, no rear steer, no dig, nothing fancy. Wheelbase is at 11". Im still working on the body, I have the hood and passanger side panel ready for paint, driver side panel just needs clearcoated and buffed, making the roof tomorrow and then just around 4 more days to spend on paint and its back at the rocks!

Got it done! Im satisfied with how it turned out. I decided to sand it down and spray it again without the green though. I think it looks better without it. Now to FOTO to beat the **** out of it! |
