Default Das Hustler

This is my Hustler painted up like WWII German ships. It's not done yet. I need to get some paint to finish it and some screws to mount the rest of the body panels.

It runs fine. I haven't fliped it over yet. I might try the droop setup and see how it handles.

Love the paint . It sure is nice to see something a little different than the rest.

Nice Hustler. Don't lose it in the snow lol. Where's your battery hiding at?

Very nice setup. Like the paint job.

The Hustler and droop go together like beer and Octoberfest.

The battery is hidden in the belly. It doesn't get caught on anything down there.

Finally got some more paint to finish the paint. Looking at just painting the top half of the Axles. Cause the paint on the steering links are scraped off from going over rocks.

Yep, stuff happens and paint disappears. Darn rocks will do it everytime.
