Question scale rig advice

i'm not new to the rc world, but i'm new to crawling. i got 1 1/2 savages, the old lady ran over one with the car, traxxas nitro sport , old ofna blazer and a axial scorpion.

i guess what i want to know is whats a good rig the start from, where do you get scale bodies, and just really anything i need to know.

thanks

To give you a little more guidance than Obijuan

Watch some videos on youtube
Look at some builds here.
Just pick a few that are your favorites and look at what they did.
The best place to start with a scaler is with a 1:1 wheelin rig you would like to take inspiration from and identify a source body be it hard or lexan. Then tailor your chassis and other bits around it.

Old trucks that look big mudder style?
First Gen Yota's?
Jeeps?
Tubers?
Euro?
Newer Domestic?

Figure out what you want, then search to try to find out what you need to know then ask questions if its not coming together or you still have problems.
