Default What is this rig?



I keep seeing this rig for sale locally. There used to be more pics of the axles etc but this is all that the seller has posted now. They claim they built it from “custom” parts but can tell me nothing about it. I googled my beains out and only found one pic of a similar chassis. Best I can guess is it is an Axial custom build before the SMT-10??? Is it a wraith based build? I see some Integy parts etc but thats it.

So what is it, durable to use, and current value???

Thanks in advance!

Gula, Thank you.

I already own a Losi LMT so I am not desperate for anything junky. Are these any good? I hear HPI is kinda back in business. I fear parts access would be hard. Is it? Please school me.

HPI Wheely King with a Traxxas Bigfoot body. Pretty nice little build..

They are pretty decent. Axle gears as the same as Axial V1, so easily replaced. Trans gears are still out there - definitely go with steel or aluminum if you can find them. CVD's are still around, but getting thin. Stock shocks tend to snap at the threads, but replacement shocks are no problem.
