I think it is pretty cool how you found your project Blazer, I am also very happy that the previous owner found the NIB body set for you

On my runner Blazing Blazer, I only added ball bearings, RC4WD leaf springs and an ESC. They are very fun to run, especially on the beach

Make sure to keep us updated on your project

Did you install ball bearing inside the transmission, too??

I really like how the spur gear on these does not have the slipper like the Bruiser/Mountaineer

Get back on it and get it done or I'm going to collect it up, lol. "Previous owner" probably can't remember who he actually allowed to get it, lol.

Either way great work!

I have a very stupid question, how does the blazing blazer body compair to a clodbuster body, width wise? I would love to have that style front clip and grill (73-79 chevorlet) on my clod bodied buiser drivetrained scaler.
