The body lost a mirror, wiper and rear bumper in the process.
That is all that fell off during its 12 hour debut at the Fix. Nothing on the chassis broke or fell off. For a sub $300
rig that is fully RTR Is pretty darn good

I greatly congratulate them for the non standard body! It is a wonderfully ugly truck!

Looking again, those axles even have the little cover on the end like the Twin hammers diffs, I would say they are either cloned or modified and made by the same chinese manufacturer... Depending on width you may be able to take one of those fronts and make a twin hammer based bomber-like-crawler heh
X2, rear Twammer axles front and rear. Driveshafts look sweet, nice high clearance if they are strong. I like it, more crawlers! Love the body!!! What wheelbase is it?

Winner! 1960s Toyota Stout, friend's dad had one back when and it was sweet, a mini truck with decent room inside and love the ugly looks!

More details, when and how much please!

Yes, but not another....one of my favorite Yoters!

It's got Honcho sliders/mounts and Honcho/Ascender wire manager clips on the frame rails.

It may be another Toyota, but it is quite far outside the normal 1/10 scale Toyota box of normality

It makes me want one a little more. But I don't mind waiting longer.

12hrs! Pffft, my boy could tear those parts off after 12 mins!

Good effort by the Carisma team, I'm interested in the kit, CMS, battery up front.....

I've managed to convert over to metric for the small things. Call me lazy then. For the bigger projects like carpentry stuff I use an 'engineer' tape measure. No inches on it as the foot is divided by ten and then by ten again. It makes reading it faster and easier to remember when cutting because there's no more fractions. 3' 3 5/8" would read 3.30'.

Dividing by 10 does make sense doesn't it. Almost sounds like metric ;)
