Default Baja'ish Pede'......

Hey all, been a while since i've posted.

This is you run of the mill brushless pede'....

My plan is to make it appear more baja'ish, which is a challenge to do because of how wide the stance is. I have about 24 hours so far in the flairs and am not even close to finished with them.


heres a pic of it so far.

LMK what you think...

See if you can find one of the old Pro-Line Silverado's or F-150's for the Stampede. They are disco'd now, but the fenders were flaired nicley, especialy the F-150. I got tired of trying to make my Pede a baja truck, and after I saw CC405's sandrail I decided to make me one. Back to your truck, It looks cool, cant wait to see it done.

It looks ok. It could be a little smoother. How about a further away shot.

The nissan or Ironman yota would be cool, if they are wide enough.

i think it would be cool if you narrowed the tires in front so they're skinny, and wide in the back. Does the video have no sound or is there something wrong with my 'puter?

I have already narrowed them once, I also thought about narrowing them some more but im going for function over form and it all ready does some sick high speed roof slides.

The vid does'nt have sound.
