Default Project Snowpede

Been digging through my Traxxas box wanting to build a snow basher and this is what I have so far. Still figuring out what I want to do for a body. Thanks to XtrmTJ and the pay it forward thread for the tires/wheels, so far I've only had to buy the skis

Anybody have some ideas to improve this build or have a snow basher of your own post it up!

Brushless is on its way, then I'll be trying it out. I also locked the rear diff.

WHERE did you you acquire this shell!?

I got an old rustler with this same shell on it and its a little worse for wear. I cant seem to find a source for it that isnt backordered for the next decade and I really dont like the new rustler body at all..
