|  Don's Blast from the Past...a tribute to my first crawler chassis Well, I was putting together my project portfolio and realized that after a few years in the hobby, I had managed to sell off the first ever crawler I had built that used my own chassis/wheels (customer begged me for it as I didn't have any more kits to sell). That being the case, I threw together it's replacement...this one will live on the shelf (when I'm not out crawling with it  ). It will be receiving a smaller brushless outrunner (BM9 if I can track one down), as that was the intended power plant, at the time of it's inception.This chassis had a 4 page feature in the September '08 R/C Car Magazine. On to the pics...will get some outside pics when the weather gets a lil nicer. Don |

| Dang, that is a cool looking chassis. There is a lot of machine time in those side plates I'm sure. Bring it to Crawlapalooza with ya and we'll get it shot up real nice.  |
