well it been a while since ive worked on this thing i took the cab to work the other day to fill the roof in and the girl i work with ripped it off so i got to get it attached again. i actually have one of those 1/5 scale jesse james 53 chevys rcs that i bodydropped and took the springs out so when it was aired out the magnesium threw sparks from the rockers (who says plastic dont spark). ive tried the touring car suspension its just to wide so i either have to narrow the frame more or just throw a straight axle under it which would be pretty easy.

i got my MRC axel and am going to start a low build. you have to figure out indy front suspension a straight axel just wont do. that way i can copy it, ha ha. cant wait for the update. looks like i will have to get the toyota body too, sorry its the only cool mini that can be shaved. unless someone knows of a chevy S-10 truck or blazer, any bod know?

Bolink used to make a Jimmy body. Ive seen a Parma second gen S10 but its pretty ugly. And I know Kyosho made a first gen S10. Good luck finding one though, they have all been discontinued for a while now.

Awesome job Mark

the Low Lux would look great on a trailer behind the highlift Chevy
