Mind if it's not on a crawler? Did this PT Cruiser for my Nitro 4-Tec, it's just a simple Parma Outlaw black over Indy Silver, very simular to a real PT I saw in a service bay at a local Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep Tamiya Mini in Pactra Metallic Black and unpainted lexan Same MC in Pactra Metallic Black and Spaz Stiks "holochrome" XL-5 Rusty with a N-Rusty Crowd Pleazer in Model Master Custom Color System Black Lacquer (still testing the durability of that paint, this body is ment to be an "anvil" for testing paint durability) Mini-T with BRP J Racing Truck body in Pactra Outlaw Black and Tamiya Flat Aluminum (won't make that mistake again) Same Mini-T and body, but in Mopar Parts Jeep Moss Green Pearl touchup spray (holds up way better than expected!) on the hood of my Moss Green Pearl Cherokee Limited E-Pede with Proline T3 Dodge Ram body painted in 3 layers, I started with Pactra Candy Red, then put down Pearl White, and backed both up with Metallic Black (kinda has a rust or copper look depending on the light) Same Pede with HPI's Dodge Ram stadium truck body painted in Model Master Plum Crazy and Flat Black Lacquers (those paints seem to stick decently too, just haven't had a chance to treat the body like the "anvil" it's ment to be) Good luck! |

Not a crawler, but still a Clod. This is the Pro-line '07 Silverado body with a silver/metallic black fade on our brand new race chassis. There are also yellow flames through the top side of the body that match the side logo color. |

Here's my two tone jeep real light sky blue metallic and the charcoal metalic faded together about 1/2 with silver cage and flat black toneu cover. I think it looks pretty sweet in my opinion. |

My Bullhead body with poor painter's ghost flames, painted it gloss black, used parma's precut flame masks and then hit it with flat black. It's only my second body, so it isn't great but I'm pretty happy with it. |

The only problem with crawlers is that a beautiful body doesn't stay that way for long! For my last one, I wanted something cool, but quick and easy to do. I just used masking tape and ripped it to give the jagged edge look. I did something of a scallop look. I used spray cans and misted red on first, then silver. Finished the truck off in metallic black. Took about an hour from start to finish and looks cool IMO. About 2 or 3 crawls on it and it's already scratched to hell and back! |

| dovetailed bronco Mini cooper. it is hard finding bods for a 10 inch WB checkered top is white and black electrical tape that I layed out on wax paper, stuck in then trimmed with exacto, then sprayed a clear over it so it would soak into the holes and keep the gold from seeping in. radioshack f350 with mattracks turned school bus rustoleum metalic black with krylon ultra flat black backing for windows.
