Default The last ride for Tin man.....It is now over ....R.I.P

So this was the last ride for Tin man..He is just to far gone to try and put back together.
His links and steering are so messed up.The tranny is held in with zap straps,and the frame is all bent to crap, The rear diff is gone too..it is over for him now,and he is in pieces .......R.I.P

That there is what I like to call "Too dumb to die." The last few minutes there reminded me of a deer I hit with my truck a few years ago.. The thing tried to get up and run away with two broken back legs, it looked about like that poor truck trying to get around...

It was time to take him off the road..The frame rail that the steering servo was on was bent, and keeps on messing up dog bones..would loose steering in one direction,the fire wall with my battery was flopping around and did want to lose another battery from it hitting the motor. didn't look right with no roof left ether..
