Default Ballistic17's Smt10 Mega Truck

Wanted to build another mega truck. Stayed with a Smt10 Builder's kit and Pit Bull RC Temco tires.

Got the axles build and most of the chassis together. I'll be using a Supershafty Bombproof Wraith trans in this build. Wanting a lot of torque and wheel speed for this one.

A couple body choices... First a random Ford body I had collecting dust on a shelf.

And the second is a Pro-Line Yeti Jeep body I've had for awhile.

Also have this JE Designs scale 3d printed engine set up coming. Won't be this color but will be this design.

Mocked up the bodies. The Ford one looks good from the front but the wheel well doesn't line up in the rear. Not digging it. The Pro-Line Jeep though looks pretty good. Just have to find a way to mount it.

New J Concepts Ford Raptor body for this build. Need to figure out a paint scheme but have a few colors in mind.

Got the body taped off and painted today. Turned out pretty good I think. I'm happy with it.
