| 1/36 Metal Bodied Micro Scaler While building the Micro Chair, I decided to build my first full body crawler. The Heavy Chevy. 1/36 Scale Micro T with a 60's metal body. it already has full ball bearings, oil filled shocks, 2s 1000mah cell phone lipo and some other minor mods. Plans include independent suspension, 4 wheel drive,upgraded Turbo FET esc, and a HiTec metal gear micro. For now its 2wd and pretty fast. After the parts that are in the mail get here, it going to be a whole new ballgame. Got some new parts in the mail for it today even! More pics when I get its new wheels on.

Custom knuckles for the front and I will need two sets of tires since the front only houses bearings. Should be pretty cool but it will still be fast. I have some ideas on connecting both gear box's together through shaft drive and running a servo for the drive motor. It should be way too much fun! Got the new tires on it! Sorry about the bad pics, its raining out today. WC | |

That looks sweet!! Cant wait to see what you come up with for the 4x4 version! Would be sweet if these could easily be converted to a crawler!
