| Hard body reality check
Hard body requires more work then a chassis, assembly and prep. Just saying.

Yup, just got my Element with a hard body operational, lots of work. Just to get the thing operational I went with the cheesy lexan interior, but will be starting work on 3D printing something more realistic, and that will be its own set challenges.

Hey Chief , fly NAVY airdale here. "lots of work. Just to get the thing operational" I'm thinking 3d printing will make that look like a cake walk. | |

That truck looks great! I have had 2 different TF2s over the past few years but didn't keep them as the interest in my local crawl group was not there. At the last event there was 2 or 3 leaf sprung trucks and 3 or 4 more guys said they had one but just didn't run them. Anyway I ordered another TF2 and should be delivered today, been reviewing some of the builds on the Trail Finder section to get back up to speed your interior is a real inspiration. Thanks

Hard body is more akin to scale model building to me. If you aren't ready for lots of fitting, cutting, and thing-a-majiggin, then you're gonna have a bad time.
