Default One nice Clod

This clod belongs to a guy named Anthony that works at the LHS. I wanted to post the pics of it for all to see. He just sold his 2.2 with a NN chassis, lathe motor, 4 ws,moabs, etc. It was really nice. I wish I would have known because he sold it for $250.00 RTR. It was a steal.

I thought most rigs were bolt ons unless it was a scaler. If an NN is bolt on then I guess an SW2, RBX, etc. would be too then.

Got to be lamest comment I've read all year. I think the truck looks awesome and who cares if it has no hand fabrication going on. Most hand fabbed trucks look the part. I'll take a semi-mass produced chassis anyday. Nothing wrong with a well engineered, machine finished looking truck vs. one pieced together, with all it's jagged edges and what not. Machining your own chassis is beyond the scope of most crawlers. We don't all have the resources!

I disagree. The pride involved is way more than you can get from any mass produced thing. Also, if you know what yur doing, tubers and custom machined chassis can look cleaner than a new lid. Not to mention the possobilities are endless when you make your own stuff because YOU decide how you want to mount things and the sizes/positioning of things. The real thing is who cares how it looks unless it's scale. What crawler can stay shiny for over a month anyway?

Anyway, that's a nice rig.
