My buddy Super is just finishing up his 50's panel truck project. It's posted in the SCX-10 thread.

That's awesome.
I've been hoping there'd be another build with this body come along soon.
I've been subscribed to Super's Panel Truck but I've now got two panel truck subscriptions

I've always liked that body, had it on a Stampede back it the day . I'd really like to see Parma update their line of bodies, though. Most of the ones I like are too short to fit a scaler chassis without some creative cutting on the wheelwells.

rjwalker, I so want to steal that paint scheme. Very cool!

.... and I originally wanted JUNKFOOT to "very closely mimic" your comp crawler. Seems to be a lot of 'covet thy neighbors goods' in this hobby.

Look forward to seeing how it comes out. Looks like a pretty nice rig.
Although.... wonder what that would look like with flat OD green (on the outside), with a large white dot on each side, each with a red cross in the middle of them.


Man, brushless, short wheelbase, four wheel steering....... I can just imagine the hilarity of doing doughnuts out on the ice!
Thing must spin like a top!
