| My FJ crawler
Picked this up about 3 weeks ago and had a old FJ body laying around so I drilled some holes into the body and started chopping the fenders off. The body is a little wide but oh well it's the show body. Already did the lipo/cf front plate and flipped the tranny. Might pick up the skulz v2 chassis up this weekend as well as the rear electronics plate. This hobby is like crack. There is also a ton of useful info on this site, glad to be part of it. |

Picked up the body off of a tyco rc that doesn't run anymore. Sorry it took me a min to put up new pics, I've been busy as hell lately. Little body rub here and there but it works. I'm also not done taking the stickers off of the body as well. |

That's sick man. You get any body rub? I've still got a little more cutting to do, I've just been lazy.

That thing is sick! Great job I have been looking for one of those bodies but cant find any. Where did you get that one? How much did it cost?
